Description
A Sprocket is a key component in power transmission and material handling systems, functioning as the driving gear for roller chains in various industrial applications. It ensures smooth and efficient operation, especially in environments that demand durability and continuous performance, such as palm oil mills.
Manufactured from high-quality materials—alloy steel, stainless steel, or cast iron—and typically hardened for wear resistance, sprockets are designed to endure high torque loads and harsh working conditions.
🔩 Sprocket Features
-
Withstands High Torque and Continuous Operation
Engineered to absorb torque from motors and power chains effectively. -
Durable, Hardened Materials
Made from hardened alloy steel or stainless steel for increased strength and reduced wear. -
Operates in Harsh Industrial Conditions
Suitable for dusty, humid, and high-temperature environments—ideal for palm oil mills and heavy-duty plants. -
Optimized for Power Transmission Systems
Enhances chain performance, reduces friction, and supports reliable conveying operations.
