A DK conveyor chain includes a construction, plus the names with the components are stated within the drawing. These components have functions specified below.
Pins
Pins assistance the many load acting to the chain together with plates, and when the chain is engaged with the sprockets, they slide together with bushings as bearings. They are subject to put on and especially will have to have higher shear power, bending power and wear resistance. Hardened and tempered difficult steel, carburized steel, or induction-hardened steel is applied.
Rollers
Rollers shield the chain from shocks with all the sprockets, and when the chain is engaged with all the sprockets, the rollers bend the chain smoothly and act to lessen the resistance when the chain runs on a rail. They’re required to possess high shock fatigue power, collapse strength and put on resistance. Hardened and tempered hard steel, carburized steel or induction-hardened steel is utilised.
Bushings
Bushings are positioned between pins and rollers and act as bearings for each the pins and rollers not to transmit the load obtained through the rollers directly to the pins once the chain is engaged with all the sprockets. They’re necessary to get substantial shock fatigue power, collapse strength and wear resistance, and generally, carburized steel is utilized.
Plates
Plates are subject to repeated tension of the chain and occasionally to massive shocks. They are required to possess high tensile strength, and especially large shock strength and fatigue power. Large tensile steel is employed for standard chains and heat-treated alloy steel for heavy-duty chains.
T-pins
T-pins avert the outer plates from disengaging in the pins. They’re made 
from soft steel considering that pins are usually pressed-in the outer plates and therefore no large force acts on the T-pins.
