RUD TECDOS – A robust and versatile solution for drive systems – Part 2

Continued from Part 1 on TECDOS. Click here to read Part 1.

TECDOS CHAINS

Highly wear resistant for maximum safety

The core component of each TECDOS drive system is a highly wear-resistant, calibrated round link chain which can be used in adverse conditions or with abrasive materials. TECDOS chains have high grade strength to ensure maximum operating safety.

There are 2 types of chains which can be used for a wide range of requirements and applications:

• Medium (quenched and tempered) chain
• Premium (case hardened) chain
  
  

TECDOS CHAIN CONNECTOR

For a reliable connection

TECDOS chain connectors help to connect chains and create a safe connection system. Connecting is easy because the overall dimensions are the same as the chain links. They can be used in both single and multi-strand conveyors, operating in medium to heavy duty conditions.

The advantages of CHAIN CONNECTOR:

• Easy installation with a hammer
• Highly wear-resistant
• Runs over sprocket wheels, grooved wheels, and flat guide wheels
• Connect chains to form a loop
  
  

TECDOS POCKET WHEEL

To complement TECDOS chains

TECDOS pocket wheels are designed to work with TECDOS chain and are available for single and multi-strand configurations from TEC 6 to TEC 260 sizes and for loads from 6 up to 260 kN.

The advantages of POCKET WHEEL:

• Made of low-alloy, machined and surface-hardened steel
• Aligned to match TECDDOS round steel chains
• Rust and acid resistant wheels are available on custom orders
  
  

TECDOS LIFT LIMITER

The lift limiter prevents the chain from “passing through” by limiting the unloaded sides of the chain, working as a route limiter.

TECDOS SLINGS

The TECDOS sling and lashing systems are available in various products such as:

• Dynamic Shackles
• Chain End Fixers
• PowerPoint Fixing Points
• Cobra Fork Head Hooks
  
  

TECDOS systems are ideal for applications where materials or equipment need to be swivelled, lifted, moved, or rotated safely and reliably. RUD quality is a result of years in research and development, creating bespoke drive solutions that are used by leading companies in maritime, engineering, automotive, wind power and by military forces around the world.
