Chain link detection system in the conveying system

In automobile production, there is a serious risk of chain breakage in the chain conveyor system. The potential causes are diverse: chain link wear, material defects, inappropriate stress, and lack of lubrication or external damage. A broken chain may cause production to halt, posing a safety risk to people and the environment. The crack may persist for several months before the damaged link eventually breaks. To curb this danger, it is necessary to regularly and reliably inspect the chain links in the conveying system. However, manual visual inspection is expensive and can only be carried out when the conveying system stops, which may lead to unexpected downtime. Moreover, this method is prone to flaws and is not very accurate. Chain links of different sizes and shapes need to be used. They work at different production speeds and will be contaminated by oil and dirt.
