Production facilities of DITTON Driving Chain factory insures the whole production cycle of driving roller chains:
|
Design and development
|
- The production process starts with the development of the technical drawings, as well as of appliances and equipment.
- Steel selection of the required quality, e.g., pins, bushes, rollers are manufactured from alloy steel, whereas plates from high-carbon alloy steel.
|
|
Manufacturing and maintenance
|
- Manufacturing of plates on high speed stamping presses
- Production of round parts (bushings, rollers) on cold heading machines
- Processing of parts on program-controlled grinding, turning and milling machines to show high surface quality
- Heat treatment of metals (hardening, tempering , nitro-cementation) to impart hardness to the surface of metal parts. Qualitative hardening of the row materials mentioned increases the breaking load and wear resistance along with product properties.
|
|
Chain assembling
|
- Assembling is performed on automatic equipment.
- After that follows chain stretching to reach the required elongation.
|
|
Acceptance tests
|
- To ensure the high quality the produced goods are tested on chain length accuracy, breaking load and serviceability of assembled parts.
|
|
Package, logistic and storage
|
- Finished goods are lubricated to ensure chain resistance to corrosion and different operating conditions.
- At customer`s request driving chains may be packed, for example, in plastic bags, corrugated boxes, on pallets, in wooden crates or in reels.
