Chain Sprocket Fundamentals

Chain sprockets play a crucial role in transferring power between two parallel shafts through a roller chain mechanism. The fundamental components of a sprocket comprise a hub that is affixed to the shaft and a series of teeth that mesh securely with the chain. When opting for a customized sprocket, several vital specifications must be taken into account:

  • Material
  • Tooth profile
  • Number of teeth
  • Dimensions
  • Bore size
  • Keyway
  • Surface treatment

Each of these parameters significantly influences the performance and lifespan of the sprocket, underscoring the importance of careful selection to achieve optimal operational outcomes.

Material and Production Techniques

The NK15B plain bore sprockets are crafted from a selection of high-carbon, alloy, or stainless steel, tailored to meet specific operational needs. We employ a diverse range of manufacturing techniques to guarantee that each sprocket adheres to stringent quality and durability standards. Key steps in the production include:

  • Material selection based on load capacity and environmental conditions.
  • Cutting methods, which may include laser, water jet, or plasma cutting.
  • Forming techniques like cold rolling, hot forging, or stamping.
  • Precision machining utilizing lathes or milling machines to achieve exact dimensions.
  • Heat treatment processes to enhance the mechanical properties of the steel.
  • Surface treatments designed to resist corrosion and improve wear resistance, which may involve plating, painting, or coating.
  • Thorough quality control inspections to ensure compliance with our rigorous standards.
