Smart Replaceable Series Large Size Conveyor Chain Sprockets

Product Photos

Smart Replaceable Series is a sprocket with a tooth-replaceable structure for Large size conveyor chain.

Since only the tooth portion can be replaced without removing the shaft, the burden of replacement work is reduced.

Efficient maintenance is possible even under conditions where replacement was previously time-consuming, such as for equipment installed at high altitudes or equipment using multiple panels.

We offer a lineup of various types to suit different applications.

Features

Three "smart"

  • *The teeth can be replaced without removing it from the shaft.
  • * Indicator pins notifies you when it's time to replace it
  • *Three types available to accommodate a wide range of usage environments

Features

Divide the sprocket (tooth part and hub part) into two parts
Easy replacement

Split Type

  • - Sprocket split into two parts with no gaps in the shaft hole
  • - Install by tightening the bolts on the hub
  • ・Split sprockets can be replaced without removing other parts
  • ・Compatible with all roller types

Ring-shaped replacement teeth
Easy replacement

Ring replacement teeth type

  • ・Ring-shaped replacement teeth are fastened to the mounting base with bolts and nuts.
  • ・The teeth can be replaced without removing the mounting base from the shaft.
  • ・Compatible with all roller types

Wear-resistant block-shaped teeth
Easy replacement

Block replacement tooth type

  • - Block-shaped replacement teeth are fastened to the mounting base with bolts and nuts.
  • ・Block replacement teeth can be replaced without removing the mounting base
  • - Lightest weight per replacement tooth, making it easy to handle

Indicator pins (Replacement notification mark)


You can determine at a glance when it's time to replace the sprocket.

The teeth will wear down and when they reach the mark, they are at the limit of their usable life.

Selectable tooth fastening methods


For ring-type and block-type replaceable teeth, you can choose between spot welding or HARDLOCK Nut fastening methods for the bolts and nuts on the teeth.

Features of HARDLOCK Nut mounting specification

HARDLOCK Nut mounting specification requires no welding and is a safe installation method that does not involve the use of fire.
This nut is designed for replacement, offering high vibration resistance and streamlining the replacement process.
The reason it is resistant to vibration is due to the following anti-loosening principle.

Principle of preventing loosening

Principle of preventing loosening

It consists of two types of nuts, one with a protruding and one with a concave shape. First, the wedge-shaped, eccentrically machined convex nut, which acts as the tightening nut, is tightened, and then the perfectly round concave nut, which acts as the locking nut, is placed over it and tightened.
This creates an effect where the entire threaded portion of the convex nut is pressed against the bolt, while the entire threaded portion of the concave nut is pressed against the bolt thread on the opposite side.

[Quoted from the website of HARDLOCK Industry Co., Ltd.]
* HARDLOCK Nut mounting specification uses HARDLOCK Nut from HARDLOCK Industry.

※Note
The amount of nut protrusion differs between spot welding and HARDLOCK Nut installation.
Please check that it does not interfere with equipment, chains, buckets, aprons, etc.

Nut protrusion

Note)
Please refer to the dimension table for the X dimension.
When using a chain with a GA4 attachment, interference will occur if the GA4 attachment is located on the side where HARDLOCK Nut is installed.
Please ensure that the GA4 attachment and HARDLOCK Nut mounting side are not the same.
You can also specify the installation location of HARDLOCK Nut; please contact us for details.

Solution Case Study using Smart Replaceable Series

Here are some examples of how Smart Replaceable series has been used to solve problems.

Case Study 1 | Significant Reduction in Workload and Costs

This design allows for the replacement of only the worn teeth without removing the sprocket shaft.
We achieved reductions in labor hours, equipment downtime, and costs.

Case Study 2 | Extending Lifespan and Improving Maintenance Efficiency

The adoption of specially shaped ring replacement teeth improves durability.
This is an example of how reducing the frequency of replacements led to increased efficiency in maintenance work.

Please refer to the following guidelines for selecting the appropriate type based on your usage conditions.
