Structure & Function

of our tensioning systems

Perfect tension for optimum performance


Chain and belt tensioning systems are critical to the efficiency and service life of drive solutions. Find out how our high quality tensioning systems can be used and the benefits they can bring to your application.

Dynamic responsiveness to changes in chain movement


Automatic adjustment for chain elongation


The only one that complies with the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC

Tension force adjustment

Our tensioning systems are particularly gentle on chains thanks to the freely oscillating spring principle, which prevents excessive surface pressure. The tension force can be optimally adjusted using up to three freely selectable springs. Once the entire adjustment range has been used, the chain must be shortened or replaced with a new one.

Visual inspection indicator

Our chain tensioners are equipped with a visual inspection indicator. This allows the maintenance technician to check the chain tension at a glance.

Green

The chain tension is within the optimal operating range

Yellow

The tension force is no longer optimal, but still sufficient

Red

The chain tension is below the level required for smooth and safe operation. The chain tensioner must be readjusted
