For many years, FB Ketten has been supplying asphalt-plants with high-quality spare parts for elevators and offering plant audits and wear measurements.
FB Ketten manufactures and distributes ready-to-install
- elevator chains (double strand and central chains)
- wear-resistant tooth segments and drive-segments
- split sprockets and
- elevator buckets
Lower TCO, higher ROI
The focus is on durable and ready-to-install chain solutions and conveyor-optimisation. Field tests of FB111 bucket elevator chains (comparable to ER111) in a gravel plant in Switzerland have shown that FB elevator chains had less chain elongation than competing products.
The result is higher plant uptime, lower total cost of ownership (TCO) and, therefore, higher return on investment (ROI).
Proven chain solutions for drum drives
- Rotary chains
- individual teeth for bolting or welding to the drums and
- ready-to-install sprockets.
Plant audits and wear measurements
FB Ketten Germany and Austria has the biggest service team in Europe with over 20 chain application engineers. Annual plant audits save time, money and unnecessary hassle.
The bucket elevator service means that you always know the exact wear status and expected remaining service life of the elevator chains and sprockets. This prevents chains from being replaced too early and ensures that their full service life is utilised. More importantly, however, it allows potential damage to be detected at an early stage, thereby preventing unplanned downtime.
The FB chain specialists also have experience in chain assembly and as supervisors.
