In the bakery and food cooling industries, spiral conveyors ( spiral cooling towers ) are core equipment for vertical continuous conveying. The Slat Chain for Spiral Conveyor directly determines whether the whole equipment can run stably for a long time.
Different from ordinary straight conveying, spiral conveying requires the chain to rotate continuously along an arc path. It has strict requirements on inner bending radius, bending fatigue resistance and surface flatness. This special slat chain is mostly made of food-grade POM / PP engineering plastic. With a modular assembly structure connected by pins, it turns smoothly without jamming, and stably carries pastries, bread, frozen food inside multi-layer spiral towers.
Core Advantages
1.Fit small-radius rotation: Special hinge structure adapts to continuous turning of spiral towers. It runs without deviation or arching to prevent product tipping.
2.Food hygiene compliance: FDA compliant material available, water and oil resistant. It can be directly washed to meet cleaning standards of food workshops.
3.Low noise & self-lubricating: POM material has natural self-lubricating property. It runs quietly and rarely needs lubrication oil, lowering risks of food contamination.
4.Easy maintenance: Modular design. If one section gets damaged, you only replace that single segment instead of the whole chain, cutting production downtime.
5.Stable temperature resistance: Adapt to low-temperature conditions of cooling lines, anti-aging, hard to break under repeated bending cycles.
Main Applications
It is widely used in spiral cooling lines for bread, cakes, pizza and frozen pasta products. It also works for vertical up / down conveying after food packaging. It realizes continuous production in limited workshop space.
Selection Tips
When selecting, confirm the minimum inner turning radius of spiral machine, product weight, working temperature and effective chain width. Different working conditions require different slat chain models. Improper matching will easily cause chain jumping, breakage and accelerated wear.
