FILM GRIPPER CHAINS

FILM GRIPPER CHAINS FOR THERMOFORMING MACHINES

PRODUCTION RANGE / APPLICATIONS

All gripper chains are used to convey plastic film in “form, fill and seal” packaging machines.

MATERIALS

TYPEDESCRIPTIONFEATURES
S+NCCarbon Steel
Nickel Plated
Through hardened carbon steel and electroless nickel plating for good corrosion resistance. Excellent strength and wear resistance
SSStainless SteelCR-NI Austenitic Stainless Steel. AISI 302-304 (Wn 1.4301). Excellent corrosion resistance to withstand corrosive attack

FILM RETENTION CHARACTERISTICS

TYPEFEATURES
VERY HIGH Film retention force is not related only to spring load. TFK clamp design ensures very high film retention force while using low spring loads, with immediate benefits in chain and clamp wear life
HIGHFilm retention is increased through higher spring load.
AVERAGEStandard clamping force, for medium/low weight applications

PRODUCT FEATURES

  • All chains are available in nickel plated and stainless steel construction, for outstanding corrosion resistance.

  • Improved clamp design for increased film retention and smooth operation.

  • Supplied in pre-stretched and matched strands for trouble free machine set-up.

  • Special lubrication applied at factory, FDA H1 food approved grease, for higher wear and corrosion resistance

TFK STYLE CLAMP DESIGN

The K style clamp allows a vertical movement combined by a side rotation and ensure easy film engagement and film scrap release
