Drive solutions with inverted chaining – as diverse as their applications!
Chamfered chains are widely used in a variety of applications and industries to achieve classic circuit operation. Their technical characteristics also make them ideal for reverse-operated drives.

The possible applications for Renold chamfered chains range from high-speed or precise positioning drives to tangential meshing and heavy-duty application drives to special versions, such as corrosion-resistant variants for the food industry.

Inverted tooth chain for high speeds
For example, for machine tools, textile machines, packaging machines, injection moulding machines, rewinders or supply reels, for transmission test benches or other test benches
