Quality can only be assessed under arduous conditions. Exceeding the limits, either upwards or downwards, leads t o inevitable expense: Over specification is costly because products and processes are used that are too expensive, equally overload is costly and leads to premature failure. The correct choice of product is possible only, if the following conditions are known: - practicable method of calculation and sound theoretical basis - proven figures from practical experience. iwis offer you all this as a package. This present handbook for chain engineering represents a summary of chain technology that the designer requires: Characteristics of various components, calculating formulae and tables. All this is supplemented by descriptions and examples of calculations.

PREFACE

It is possible to have alternative solutions, which can be supported by calculations, to a number of problems. Optimum results can only be obtained, if the basic information is known and well founded values are available from experience. The User can rely on assistance from our Technical Advisory Dept. This Department has vast applicational experience of chain drives ranging from the camshaft drive for highspeed racing engines to the conveying of special components through drying ovens, from precision conveyors used in copying equipment, and the stopgo operation encountered with power and free conveyor chains in transfer lines in the motor industry.

Reliable products are identified by their accuracy, close tolerances and proven performance. These are the products that iwis supply. The latest issue of catalogue Precision Chains for Drive and Conveyor Purposes, which is supplemented by a range of special leaflets, provides information in respect of all available standard and special chains, chain wheels, tensioning devices and other chain drive accessories. This technical handbook extends the range of iwis publications and should help the engineer assess and understand the theory and practice of chain drives and the advantages available when iwis products are specified and selected.

A POWER TRANSMISSION CHAIN

1 Introduction
The chain drive assumes a special position in the large group of drive mediums for the transmission of torque and power. The great advantage of this type of positive controlled connection is the constant relative speed between driving and driven shafts and the complete elimination of slip, compared with non-positive drives (e.g. belt drives) where slip very often can only be prevented by high belt tension. Steel roller chains are used as drive, transport or conveyor chains for static or alternating loads with slow or high chain speeds transmitting power between two parallel shafts. Compared to the use of cables, round link chains, gear and belt drives, the application for steel roller chains must be defined accordingly. The construction of steel roller chain has the advantage of avoiding bending stresses during operation, to which cables are subjected, when they run over pulleys. They are particularly advantageous when long distances between shafts have to be connected, and they are more cost effective than gear drives, due to the fact that no idler gears with bearings are required. Gear drives mean a change of direction. With chain drives the sense of direction remains the same. They constitute a flexible connection between shafts. By using adjustable idler wheels it is possible to control the rotation of two shafts in phase. Chains can engage with chain wheels on both sides, which is often required for special drives, which need a change of direction. Chain drives are less sensitive to dirt and lack of maintenance than gear and other drives and can also be used under higher operating temperatures. Steel Roller chains are used throughout engineering. They are used in the manufacturing of machine tools, printing machines, in the textile and packaging industry, for material handling, agricultural machinery, in the construction industry, hydraulic engineering and mining industry, and also in the construction of vehicles and engines.

2 Design of steel roller chains


Steel roller chains consist of a range of individual chain links. Each link in turn consists of individual components some of which are designed to transmit tensile loads and others that allow the articulation of two links in respect of each other. The design of the links is of particular importance. Generally speaking they move only in one plane.

Inner plate Inner links Bushes Rollers Inner plate Outer link

Outer plate

A chain consists of inner and outer links. The inner link consists of two inner plates into which, two bushes are pressed and two rollers, which rotate on the bushes.

In the case of bush chains both rollers are ommitted. Thus the bushes are in direct contact with the chain wheel teeth.

The outer link consists of two outer plates and two bearing pins. The connection of the inner links by adding outer links is shown in the above illustration.

3 Roller and bush chains

Roller chain

Bush chain

The rollers which rotate on the bushes run with little friction on the teeth of the chainwheel, as there is a constant change in contact area. The grease film between rollers and bushes contributes towards silent running and absorbs shocks.

The bearing area given in the table for each chain size is the projection of the bearing surface

iwis bush chains which are used for heavily stressed camshaft drives in highspeed Diesel engines have been particularly successful.

iwis manufacture both types of chains. The decision to use one or the other type requires a thorough knowledge of the problems to be solved.

In the case of a bush chain, the teeth of the chain wheel always contact the stationary bushes at the same point. It is therefore important to provide excellent lubrication when using this type of drive.

between bush and bearing pin. That is the length of the bush, multiplied by the bearing pin diameter. A higher bearing area results in a lower bearing pressure, and therefore reduces wear rate.

A POWER TRANSMISSION CHAIN

This design of iwis-high-performance roller chains and of bush chains is illustrated in the following drawings.

4 Single and multiple chains


Single chain Double chain Triple chain

As soon as the transmission of torque using a single chain requires less than a 15 tooth chainwheel, it is recommended to use a multiple chain with a smaller pitch. This results in a larger number of teeth with the same chain wheel diameter. This improves the polygonal effect of the chain links, and the impact speed of the rollers on the teeth are reduced.

Therefore a drive using a multiple smaller pitch chain will run more quietly than a single chain with a larger pitch. Multiple chains with a smaller pitch than the single chain should also be selected, if single chains exceed the maximum permissible chain speed that is shown on the graphs on pages 29 and 30.

Multiple chains are more sensitive to misalignment of the chainwheels. For reasons of durability it is not recommended to go beyond triplechains. Where a triple chain is insufficient, it is possible to use two double chains or several triple chains. In this case care should be taken to ensure that the chains are matched.

5 Connecting links
If chains are not supplied as endless chains, the ends are connected by a connecting link. On chains up to and including 1" pitch the plate is retained by means of a spring clip. For chains 1 1/4" pitch and over and chains to DIN 8188 from 3/4" onwards, the link plate is secured by means of a split pin.

Rivetting link Chains are endlessly rivetted together using this type of connecting link.

Double cranked link A double cranked link consists of one cranked link and an inner link. They are used to produce chains with an uneven number of links.

www.iwis.com

Spring clip connecting link This spring clip is used to connect chain sections ending with inner links. The closed end of the clip is fitted in the direction of chain motation.

Single-cranked link with screwed connection With only one connecting link A, E or K and using this cranked link chains with an uneven number of links can be produced.

Split pin connecting link Fulfils the same purpose as the spring clip type.

Ein gekrpftes Glied schwcht die Kette und sollte vermieden werden, weil sich sonst die Bruchkraft um ca. 20 % reduziert.

1 Design and construction


The shape of the chainwheels is determined by the chain size, number of teeth and the torque to be transmitted. Wheels with hubs allow the transmission of a higher torque, whereas plate wheels may be used only for the transmission of smaller torques. The tooth form is designed in accordance with DIN 8196. The calculation of the required values is summarized below.

Pitch circle correction for long pitch chains

In the case of roller chains to DIN 8181 (long pitch type) the chain wheels with normal pitch to DIN 8187/88 are often used, in order to avoid a special design. If on the other hand an accurate wrap around these chain wheels

has to be achieved, it is necessary to correct the pitch circle diameter. The tooth forming is carried out on a larger pitch circle diameter. The correction is made in accordance with the following formula:

3 Checking chain wheels


The dimensions indicated on pages 16 to 19 must be checked. This applies also to the surface finish. The root circle diameter, together with the longitudinal tolerance of the chain provides the initial gearing between the chain and the chainwheel. With an excessively small root circle diameter the chain is located relatively high in the tooth form from the very beginning. Thus the capacity for absorbing wear is reduced. Particular care should be taken in the manufacture of chain wheels with a small number of teeth. The accuracy of the root circle diameter can be checked by placing a new chain on the machined teeth. If the individual chain links can be lifted out of the teeth the root circle d iameter is too small. The check thus described can only be used for low requirements. A more accurate check should be carried out by measurement taken over checking pins as shown MR.

Chain wheel bore Unless otherwise agreed between Manufacturer and Costumer, the chain wheel bores shall have a tolerance range of H 8. Choice of material The choice of material depends on the drive conditions, number of teeth, speed and transmitted torque. For small chain wheels with fewer than 30 teeth and an average chain speeds up to approx. 7 m/sec. Steel of a higher strength is used. In the cace of higher chain speeds tempered, case hardened or flame hardened steel is used. For the manufacture of large chain wheels with more than 30 teeth, grey iron or steel castings are used for average speeds, whereas tempered steel is usual for higher chain speeds.

In addition the chainwheels should be checked for run-out and excentricity. DIN 8196 gives the following recommendations: Concentricity Max. discrepancy in concentricity between chain wheel bore and root circle diameter when locating the wheel in the bore: 0,0008 df + 0,08 or 0,15 (according to which value is the higher), but a maximum of 0,76 mm. Run-out Max. run-out allowable between chain wheel bore and face of chain wheel, with the wheel located in the bore is: 0,0009 df + 0,08, with a maximum of 1,14 mm Dimension d pitch circle diameter and z no. of teeth see tables in catalogue Chain Wheels and Plate Wheels

The suitability of a chain drive for a specific purpose depends upon whether it can sustain the stresses that arise for an assumed period

of time. When designing it is necessary to take into account all influencing factors which in their entirety determine the durability of

a chain. The following diagram is designed to provide an idea of the interdependence of the influencing factors.

Selection factors Size Components Total assembly

Materials Breaking strength Wear resistance Durability Type Quality Heat treatment Surface treatment

Dynamic influences Load shocks Polygon effect Run in load Load alternation/ frequency Dynamic load

There are three significant factors that determine the operational characteristics of the chain: Breaking strength: If the load on a chain is increased until the chain breaks, this load will equal the breaking strength and the fracture that occurs is referred to as a forced fracture. Fatigue resistance The influencing factors arising from the operational conditions

for roller and bush chains. In the case of optimum operating conditions, the expected life is 15.000 operating hours with a max. 2 % chain elongation. Bearing pressure, friction travel (page 27) and quality of lubrication are important factors that affect chain wear. The selection can be affected by multiplying the capacity to be transmitted by the following factors.

Each chain wheel is a polygon whose number of corners corresponds with the number of teeth. With a constant angular velocity the chain speed v is thus subject to periodic fluctuations between

the limit values vmax and vmin (polygonal effect). In this way the chain is alternately accelerated and decelerated and there are increased loads.

Speed variation

Number of teeth z

The speed variation is only dependent on the number of teeth z. It increases with the number of teeth z < 19 to a considerable extent. When the chain runs on the chainwheel the link angle is as follows:

This is the reason why small numbers of teeth, particularily in conjunction with higher speeds should be avoided. With z > 19 the speed variation approaches Consequently the deflection (angle of friction) increases with a decreasing number of teeth and wear increases. The friction travel is calculated as follows: s= d2 z

Speed Chain speed The number of chain revolutions per minute is n1 z1 n z bzw. 2 2 X X As speed n of the driving wheel increases, the number of chain revolutions increases correspondingly.

d = Pitch circle diameter in mm

As the chain speed increases the permissible bearing pressure must be reduced.

20 m/s should be considered as the maximum chain speed, with 30 m/s under certain circumstances. These figures drop considerably with an increase in pitch size. The chain speed is a decisive factor for the impact speed vA of the chain wheel against the chain roller, as can be seen from the formula:

According to chain size a limit value of approx. 4 m/s is acceptable for vA. A high impact speed causes high impact energy with a corresponding load on the chain rollers. With a given chain speed v the impact speed is to be kept low by means of a large number of teeth z.

As the chain gears on the wheel the chain rollers impact on the teeth with a shock. The kinetic energy of the impacting mass has to be absorbed by the roller.

When i = 1:1 the friction travel is identical on both chain wheels. d2 d2 = z1 z2

When i = 2:1 the friction travel is: d2 d und 2 z1 z2 thereby the overall friction travel is reduced. d2 = Bearing pin diameter

The higher the ratio the higher the permissible bearing pressure.

The table quotes for imax 7:1. This ratio should only be used in extreme cases and with a very slow running chain drive. As a result of the large arc of contact at the large chain wheel and the

high number of teeth in mesh, the chain on the non tensioned side will not engage positively. In this case a ratio of 4:1 should not be exceeded.

Shock factor Y Effect of shock factor Y f3 1 1 2 1,37 3 1,59 4 1,72

Many chains are subjected to shock loads whose size depends on the type and performance of the driving and driven machines. These shocks lead to an increased load in the chain compared with a shockfree operation.

When designing the chain drive, this shock loading, which represents an increase in the chain pull and affects in particular the durability, must be taken into consideration.

The following shock factors can be taken as an illustration.

www.iwis.com

Shock factor Y = 1 For machines with shockfree operation, i.e. machines driven by electric motors, i.e. lathes, drilling machines, etc. Shock factor Y = 2 For planers and shapers, presses of all types, weavers looms, continous conveyors, etc.

Shock factor Y = 3 for twin-cylinder piston pumps, mixing drums, stampers, lifting gears etc.

Shock factor Y = 4 for single-stage centrifugal compressors, etc.

The greater the centre distance the higher the permissible bearing pressure.

If the shaft centre distance is increased, the chain must be increased in length and the number of chain rotations is therefore reduced.

Consequently individual chain links are deflected less frequently, therefore the total friction travel and the wear must be reduced. A shaft centre distance should be chosen to provide an even number of chain links. A chain with an uneven number of links makes it necessary to use a cranked link, which reduces the chain breaking strength by 20 %.

Suitable lubrication is an important condition for the durability of a chain whose individual links perform like friction bearings carrying out a pivoting movement. An efficient lubrication system

should therefore be used as a matter of course, to ensure that the lubrication film in the link remains intact, thus avoiding unlubricated movements causing a high degree of wear. With

inadequate lubrication and unclean operating conditions the transmittable power is reduced by up to 20 %. Thus the efficiency of the chain is reduced more dramaticly than by any other factor.

If adequate lubrication is not possible, an oversized chain must be selected, unless a shorter working life is acceptable, as an alternative.

The most suitable lubrication system depends also on the chain speed.

Multi shaft drives

Where more than two shafts are driven by a chain, the power should be increased by the factor f6 The use of additional shafts increases the friction travel between chain pin and bush by d2 d2 d2 + + + z1 z2 z3 during one chain revolution.

Consequently, factor f6 should be taken into account for the bearing pressure. 103 1 1 1 + + + 3 z z 2 z3 X f6 = 1 0, 584 X = Number of links

If the number of shafts is increased, the permissible bearing pressure is reduced.

Summary

The previously mentioned factors f1 f6 determine significantly the permissible bearing pressure. Relevant determining factors are given in the table on page 35.

Initial selection by performance diagram

The plotting of the performance curve was based on the following initial values: Number of teeth of small chain wheel z1 = 19, ratio i = 3:1, shockfree operation Y = 1, centre distance 40 x p (p = pitch), perfect lubrication, 2 shafts.

Since these conditions are met in very few cases only, the power to be transmitted P will be corrected to the diagram power PD, taking into consideration the variable factors f1 to f6.

3 Determining length of chain 3.1 Number of links and centre distance

Chain drive with 2 shafts If the chain size has been determined, it is possible to calculate the number of links, the length of the chain and the exact centre distance.

1 Chain wheels with identical numbers of teeth z1 = z2 No. of links: X= a= 2a +z p Xz p 2

z z1 A= 2 2

or from table on page 41 [mm]

a= 2 X ( z1 + z 2 ) Cp

C = Factor for centre distance from table on page 41

www.iwis.com

In most cases the approximate centre distance is given, for which very often an uneven number of links X is obtained. This figure is rounded up to the next even figure, or rounded down, as the case maybe, in order to avoid an uneven number of links. The centre distance is then again calculated with the corrected number of links.

The smallest centre distance for a chain drive consisting of two chain wheels shall always be higher than the arithmetic mean of the outside diameters of both wheels.

With a fixed centre distance and given chain wheel diameter the slack of the chain is compensated by means of a tensioner. See also page 58, drive arrangement.

The pitch circle diameter for the wheels is used as a basis for determining the number of links. The theoretical chain length X' is calculated by the addition of all LTi and values.

X' X' =

ii 1 z zi i L Ti + p ii 360

In the special case where all chain wheels have the same number of teeth and are situated within the chain, the simplified formulae applies for the calculation of the number of links.

X' X' =

1 ai + z p ii

The number of links calculated is generally speaking not a full figure and must therefore be rounded up to the next highest even number. Where it is possible to provide

adjustment, this method is sufficiently accurate, otherwise the centre distances or number of teeth should be modified until the correct chain tension is achieved.

Chain drive consisting of several shafts

It is possible to produce equations for the calculation of the number of links for chain drives with more than two chain wheels. However, the mathematical calculation is complicated and graphical determination of the chain length is thus easier and in most cases it can be

carried out with sufficient accuracy. The basic procedure is shown below. A large scale should be chosen when the drive details are being drawn. This will minimize errors in chain length calculation.

3.2 Measuring chain length


The size of the chain is determined by the pitch p, the inner width b1 and the diameters of the rollers or bushes d1 respectively. Multiplying pitch p with the number of links X gives the length L of the chain.

L=pX

[mm]

Establishing length and tolerance of a chain

In the case of open chains the stretched (actual) length is measured under load by applying the standard measuring load. The length established is then compared with the nominal lengths to DIN standards, which are listed in the following tables for many pitches and numbers of links. In the case of endless chains a circumferential measurement using twice the measuring force is used.

Further note: With a new chain the tedious counting of links can be left out, if the total chain length is established (in mm) and the relevant number of links for the pitch in questions is read off the tables on pages 45 50. The standard length tolerance for iwis chains are better than those specified by normal standards. In addition it is possible to produce

chains to closer tolerances still The permissible tolerance in length may be + 0,15 % for roller and bush chains with a measuring length 49 x pitch. The measurement should be taken with the chain clean and free of lubrication and with the application of the measuring force. The tolerance for differing chain lengths of certain pitches can be calculated, using the following formula:

www.iwis.com

(+) tolerance = p X 0,0015 [mm] (DIN 8187/88/81, 8154) p = pitch X = number of links

The measuring forces specified for the pitch and type of construction can be taken from the following tables:

D GENERAL INFORMATION FOR CHAIN DRIVES

1 Arrangement of drive
When designing a chain drive it is very often impossible to realize the theoretical best arrangement of the chainwheels. A horizontal position for the chain wheel shafts is preferable, where the driven/taught span should be at the top and the slack span below. For chain drives arranged in the normal position the slack should be approx. 1 % of the centre distance. The mean centre distance can be assumed to be 30 60 pitches p. The angle of arc depends on the following: z1 21 z1 > 21 120 90

taught span Drive

Driven wheel

Slack span

Slack ca. 1 %

Centre distance

Further examples of chain drive layout:

With chain wheels arranged horizontally and up to 60 a tensioner and or guide is not necessarily required. When adapting a drive to a restricted space it is possible to use idler wheels. Where the distance between centres is considerable, chain guides can be used to support the chains.

With the chain vertical, a tensioning roller or blade should be provided. An excessive chain length can be compensated by means of a tensioning roller in the case of fixed centre distances. With the driven chain side below, only a short centre distance and minimum slack is permissible, to ensure that the slack chain does not interfer or compact between the wheels.

Accurate chain alignment has a significant effect on chain life. Particular care should be paid to ensure that the shafts are parallel and to the alignment of the chain wheels. As a guide for slow running chain drives a tolerance of 0,2 mm per 100 mm centre distance is given for misalignment. In the case of faster running drives, such as in combustion

engines and with short centre distances misalignment of the wheels should not exceed 0,1 mm. With short centre distance drives and vertical chain wheel centres the chain should be supported by means of a guide. Where the misalignment exceeds the specified value or if there is no support in the case of vertical chain wheel centres, the inner

links interfer with the chain wheel teeth, resulting in continuous knocking of the inner link plates, which are eventually pushed outwards until hey contact the outer link plates and thus reduce the freedom of link movement. In addition, lateral vibrations are set up, which accelerate chain wear.

3 Chain tension
Vibrations cause wear and increase the noise level of chain drives. They can be caused by: - Uneven rotational speed of driver or driven sprocket - Polygon effect - Inaccurate alignment - Vertical and horizontal run-out of sprockets - Long, loose chain sections - Insufficient lubrication A distinction is made between longitudinal and transverse oscillations of the chain. In the case of longitudinal oscillations there is a constant change in chain tension between the chain wheels. Transverse oscillations are set up with long and loose chain sections as a result of superimposing pulse and natural frequencies of the drive. With the correct tension and guiding of the chain the above oscillations can be reduced or even prevented.

Chain tensioners

The life of a chain drive is increased considerably if a tensioner is used. A chain works satisfactorily up to an elongation due to wear amounting to max. 2 %, provided it is continuously re-tensioned. If this is not done, the slack span begins to hang

to an increasing degree and the chain runs unevenly causing additional wear. The initial load must be sufficient to stabilize the chain running, to eliminate the wear and to prevent jumping of the chain over the teeth.

Excessive high initial tensioner load has to be avoided, since this can increase the chain load and bearing pressure beyond an acceptable level.

Chain tensioner AMS type With automatic adjustment and non-return mechanism. This tensioner ensures constant damping of oscillations. Two fixing bolts in a groove enable the complete chain tensioner to be moved, thus increasing the range of adjustment. Detailed information is provided in a special brochure.

Installation: The tensioners offered by iwis can be fitted in many positions. They are always fitted on the slack span of the chain drive.

Chain guides www.iwis.com

Chain guides are used to support chains where the centre distance is long, in order to reduce the stress as a result of the chain weight. They also reduce trans-

verse and longitudinal oscillations, which increase the wear rate. In addition, chain guides are used to absorb or reduce the force due to the mass, as it occurs when the

chain runs off the wheel. Chain guides can be effectively used for noise damping purposes.

Regular maintenance and lubrication are preconditions for low wear and long service life of the

chain drive. Maintenance and lubrication frequency, as well as the related relubrication, is

determined by operating conditions (tensile forces, temperature, contamination, aggressive media).

Maintenance
During regular visual inspections special attention should be paid to stretching due to wear, tension, lubrication condition, and evidence of wear due to tracking errors. Checking the maximum permissible stretching due to wear: The length of a chain is defined by the pitch p and the number of links X. In the course of time stretching due to wear occurs, and usually this can be measured without removing the chain. The difference from precise measurement with a specified measurement load is slight if measurements are conducted over the highest possible number of chain links, approximately 20 to 40. The chain should be replaced at: max. 3 % for simple drives ca. 2 % ca. 1 % for high-performance drives for special applications (synchronous operation, positioning)

Measurement of stretching due to wear

Pitch p number of links X Measured length Lm

Stretching due to wear L

100 [%]

Controlled retensioning of the chains has a very positive effect on chain life. Extreme retensioning should be avoided just as much as excessive slack. A guideline figure would be approx. 5 % of the actual chain pulling force. In the case of chains running in parallel both strands must be tensioned equally, at best by a common shaft for both sprockets. If no automatic chain tensioning device is available the

chain must be adjusted by hand, by altering the distance betwee the sprocket shafts. A further possibility with long drives is to shorten the chain by removing individual links, provided that wear is relatively light. Various tools are available for dismantling and reassembling the chain. These tools are available for parallel pin and shouldered pin chains. Before relubrication the chains and sprockets should be cleaned to remove obstinate contamination and to permit the lubricant to penetrate via the back of the plates. The surface of the chain can also be cleaned using an apropriate solvent. Complete immersion and washing is not recommended as the cleaning agent does not evaporate completely from within the chain and thus the penetration of the fresh lubricant is obstructed.

During visual inspection, attention should be paid to evidence of chain linkplate marking and wear due to tracking errors. These are caused by misaligned sprokkets or guides or by chains which are not in parallel. Guide figure for alignment deviations per 100 mm axle separation: 0.1 mm with fast-running drives and close axle spacing; 0.2 mm with slow-running drives. The sprockets should be constantly inspected and if necessary replaced. We do not recommend that new chains are used with worn sprockets.

Lubrication

Correct and effective lubrication will protect against high wear resulting from bearing pressure, articulation of pin and bush bore and rotation of the roller.

It will considerably lengthen the service life of the chain. An adequate supply of lubricant must be present in the chain parts at all times and under all load condi-

tions. Only then can the lubricant do its job of reducing wear, protecting against corrosion and providing a damping action.

Chain elongation in %

Influence of lubrication on wear and chain stretching

Operating time in hours h

Graph 1 without lubrication, immediate wear is unavoidable Graph 2 optimum initial lubrication, no re-lubrication, high wear after a short time Graph 3 optimum initial lubrication and re-lubrication, low wear and long service life

Depending upon the application, iwis chains are given the appropriate highgrade lubrication. Due to the articulation of the chain parts the lubricant is used in the course of time. For this reason regular re-lubrication is imperative. Selection of the most suitable lubricating method will depend upon the chain speed and chain pitch.

Chain lubricants must provide a combination of the following properties: Adhesiveness, compatibility with initial lubricant, corrosion protection, load-carying capacity of the oil film, creep capability, anti-seizing lubrication, high viscosity coupled with good flow

properties, stability at high temperatures, water repellency, resistance to different media, etc. Recommendations for the selection of the most suitable lubricant may be obtained from the applications advisory service or a competant tribologist.

Note: Connecting links, when supplied separately, have only been immersion-protected against rust and must be greased upon installation. If the connecting links are supplied together with the chains, they will have been greased with the same lubricant as the chains.

D General information for chain drives

Manual lubrication With oil can or brush very unreliable. Thus it is suitable only for drives that are not in constant service or for drives with slow chain speeds.

Drip feed lubrication Drip feed is suitable for chain drives that are not highly stressed. In order to reach the joints, the drip tube should be carefully positioned as shown.

Oil bath lubrication A chain casing absorbs noise and should be as large as possible, to prevent the chain knocking against the casing wall if the chain elongates due to wear. There is no loss of lubricant in an oil bath. The chain linkplates and rollers should be submerged in the bath. Too great a depth leads to overheating of the oil and its premature oxidation, and causes power loss due to the increased running resistance. Pressure lubrication Required for high-speed chain drives and high loads. The oil supply can be connected to an existing pressure pipe or it can be provided by a pump. A tube ejects the oil in the direction of the chain travel over the entire width of the chain, onto the inside of the taught span of the chain. The amount of oil feed depends on the size of the drive and the heat to be dissipated.

The extended pins can be fitted on one or both sides of the chain and at any distance. There is a press fit between the extended pin and the outer link plates, to secure against rotation. A significant advantage of this conveyor chain design, compared to vertical attatchment plates for example, is the central application of turning moments, which will reduce the risk of moving the chain from the guide.

E CHAINS FOR INDUSTRIAL USE

2.4 Corrosion-protected chains


Where conditions are less severe, chains with surface-protected parts can be used. IWIS chains are produced with nickel- and zinc-plated surface coatings. Surface-coated chains provide good corrosion protection: nickelplated against the effects of moisture, and zinc-plated also against weak organic acids.Nickelplated surfaces are permitted in the food-stuffs industry. For technical reasons the pins of these chains are made of normal high-grade steel for chain pins (not SL). More detailed information is available on request.

2.5 Apron chains


Conveying and storage of components through the tightest curves. The apron chain is a long-link roller chain 1 1/2 x 7/16" made to DIN 8181 with vertical extended chain pins. Each link is designed as a cranked link with cotter pin. On the extended head of the pin a steel plate is pressure fitted. The meshing shapes of the plates always ensures a constant surface for receiving the components even on the curves. The apron chains ability to run around very tight radius curves provides the advantage that long conveyor sections can be concentrated into much smaller spaces. Blattbreite: 50 / 80 mm Minimum radius: 60 mm / 150 mm Minimum tooth number: 20 bei 50 mm 30 bei 80 mm Number of links: Nur gerade Gliederzahl mglich.

These chains are made to dimensions shown on page 10 under iwis reference L 85 SL, M 106 SL and M 127 SL. The carriers made from high-grade wear-resistant plastic convey the

transported items and seal off the chains functional area. Guide values for chain selection: friction factor 0.1 for determining the pulling capacity of the chain; friction factor 0.25 for calculating

the drive power. For normal loads, a bridgeshaped chain guide on which the chain rollers are carried will be adequate.

Special designs with guide plates, other transport roller diameters and roller arrangements are available on request. Maximum permissible conveyor length, depending on load, approx. 30 m. In the case of conveyor sections longer than approx. 10 m, guide plates are recommended as compensation for any misalignment in the guides which may be present. The decisive factor in selecting chain size is the load-bearing capacity of the transport rollers and the permissible chain pulling power. Depending on loading, chain guides can be made of plastic or steel. Option: Chains M 127 SFK/SFS with transport rollers 24 and 26 mm diameter can also be supplied with wear-resistant plastic inserts, which seal off the gaps between the transport rollers and protect the chain from ingress of foreign matters.

Dimensions and values not given are identical to iwis chains L 85 SL and D 85 SL.

The gripper elements are mounted continuously or at defined intervals on the chain. The entire chain is corrosion-protected by nickelplating, while the grippers themselves consist of a corrosionresistant, hardened steel. In the standard version, the gripper is provided with a point, and it operates within U-shaped plates fitted on one side of the chain at each outer link.

The gripper opens when it runs onto a control disk which can be the hardened sprocket boss. The gripper then swings outwards and permits the transported item to be loaded or unloaded. The type of control disk will depend on the machine design, available space and mounting possibilities. Detailed information is provided in a special brochure.

2.13 Tube or can conveyor chains


Careful take-up and transportation of thin-walled hollow articles

The field in which these conveyor chains are most frequently used is in the production of tubes and cans. These hollow articles, which are usually light, thin-walled and sensitive, must run through numerous processing stations and are there cleaned, lacquered, dried, packed and so on. These items are conveyed in large quantities at high speed over long

transportation paths. Depending on the individual process, other stresses are strong contamination and temperature influences. In the production of tubes as a rule high-performance roller chains with pitches between 1/2" and 1" are used. The hollow articles are taken up by spring steel pins whose spacing and length will depend on the size of the work-

piece. The spring steel pins are pressed onto extended bearing pins and secured against rotation. The shape of the pin end can be made to match requirements. In the case of repairs it must be possible to replace the pin easily and rapidly. A special tool is available for chains L 85 SL, M 106 SL and M 127 SL.

performance, and durability. In the course of many decades roller and bush type chains of certain standard dimensions have proved to be particularly suitable. iwis This comprises a number of single and double chains designed as roller or bush chains. Each one of these types has certain characteristics which make them particularly suitable for certain applications. New types are being developed in conjunction with new engine developments. The best materials and precision production processing together with the highest quality standards ensure a timing chain that will satisfy the demanding requirements of todays high performance engines.

have influenced the development in this sector from the very beginning and have become leaders in this field.

Higher engine loads and operating speeds, along with new extremes of torsional vibration and temperatures make it essential to utilize a timing chain that combines high strength and low wear elongation. This will result in more precise camshaft timing as well as reducing timing variation over the life of the engine. The table on page 70 shows a summary of roller and bush chains for engines.

Characteristics and typical applications of selected types of chains 7 mm x 2/16" G 44 H 8 mm x 3/16" G 53 H / D53H bush chains Characteristics: Single bush chains, 8 mm pitch, large bearing pin diameter, large bearing area. Standard gearing as with 8 mm roller chain. Principal applications: Reduced weight due to small pitch, compared with 3/8" chain, thus reduced centrifugal force and impact speed. Particularly suitable for drives with high speeds (e.g. mass balancing) or as timing chains on small engines (motorcycles) or drive chains for auxiliary equipment.

Simple rails made of plastic or metal with plastic or rubber linings are used as guides, depending whether the chain track is straight or curved. If there is a danger that the chain may be subjected to lateral oscillations, rails with lateral guides are used, which guide either between the inner link plates or enclose the chain in a U-section.

Chain drives used on combustion engines are subjected to an inherent sequence of unequal loads. In addition to the engine characteristics, the number of cylinders, arrangement of drive components and the type and number of auxiliary drives are factors of significance. By using tensioning and guide

New chain types

NEW CHAIN TYPES

Over the past years, the main requirements for chains focused on minimum elongation throughout the vehicles life cycle and high strength. Recently, however engine designers have expressed a further wish for reduced noise emission and improved chain dynamics. This new demand

arises from the realization of smoother combustion processes due to new injection technology and the reduction in noise emission from accessory drives in the combustion engine, through which the timing chain drive is being perceived to a greater extent as a source of noise.

In response to these demands, two new chain generations have been developed and are represented by the iwisupreme and iwistar versions. Both chains combine stan-dard iwis chain characteristics with additionally optimised acoustic and dynamic performance.

iwisupreme
Due to their kinematics characteristics, inverted tooth chains in particular, display major potential for an improvement in dynamic and acoustic performance. Whereas inverted tooth chain drives have proven their performance for many years in timing chain drives with less dynamic loading, up to present it has not been possible worldwide to implement them on engines with challenging dynamic demands (e.g. diesel engines) due their greater chain elongations in comparison to bush and roller chains. The iwisupreme version is based on the operating principle of an inverted tooth chain (see figure 1). By optimising the kinematical

motion sequence at the chain infeed and outfeed, the infeed pulse and irregularity of motion and power transmission (chordal action) could be reduced. Extensive engine trials indicated an improvement in chain dynamics as well as in acoustic performance. The link plate contour was designed so that even very small teeth numbers of 18 on the smallest chain sprocket could be achieved, which has a very positive effect on the demand of radial design space. A bush was integrated in the inner link of the tooth link plates to improve the wear and tear characteristic. Whereas on conventional inverted tooth chains the articulated movement takes place between the tooth link plate

and the pin at the chain sprocket infeed and outfeed, on the iwisupreme version, the interaction between bushing and pin is analogous to that of bush and roller chains. The design-related improvement in tribological conditions is reflected in perceptibly lower wear and tear values in comparison to conventional inverted tooth chains and permits even implementation in diesel engines. Due to the compact design of inverted tooth chains, in which a greater number of transmitting link plates can be featured in comparison to roller and bush chains, a significant benefit in terms of strength can also be observed on the iwisupreme.

The iwistar variant was developed on the basis of proven bush and roller chains with the objective to improve the dynamics and acoustic performance (see figure 2).

Chain components Guiding plate Inner tooth link plate Bush Pin

Figure 2: Design of the iwistar chain variant

In order to reduce the unevenness at chain infeed and outfeed, the chain rests on a supporting ring by its specially shaped outer and inner link plates (see figure 3). As it runs into the chain sprocket, the chain is lifted by the interaction of

link plate contours and supporting ring. The design of the geometry of the link plate contours intends the inner tooth link plate to roll off the supporting disc while the chain wheel turns and at the same time, the lifting of the chain

is counteracted by the engagement of the chain sprocket. As such, the polygonal effect can be almost completely eliminated and smooth chain running assured.

Both newly developed variants, iwisupreme and iwistar, are available in pitches of 7 mm,

By implementing the iwistar variant, a perceptible reduction in inner chain excitation and an improvement in acoustic performance can be achieved. As the wear and tear and strength values of the iwistar variant are identical

to that of standard bushing chains, users can implement the chains without any restrictions.

8 mm and 9.525 mm. The main geometrical dimensions have been selected so that when converting a bush or roller chain drive, there is no need to replace the rails.

NEW CHAIN TYPES

iwistar The inner dynamics of a chain drive and acoustic behaviour perceived by the customer are mainly determined by the polygonal effect of chains that increases as the number of teeth on the chain sprocket decreases.
