Low Back Pressure Chain
Low back pressure (LBP) chain utilises a roller-module design that allows free-spinning rollers on the chain surface, minimising friction and back pressure during accumulation to ensure stable, damage-free product conveying.
Dotmar’s low back pressure chain is manufactured from high-grade engineering plastic, selected for its excellent wear resistance, low coefficient of friction, and durability in demanding conveying environments. The chain’s integrated rollers rotate freely, drastically reducing line pressure as products accumulate, which helps prevent damage to delicate items.
This chain solution is custom-fabricated by Dotmar to meet precise application requirements, offering a reliable, low-maintenance alternative to traditional metal chains. By choosing Dotmar, you benefit from our experience in engineering plastics and our commitment to delivering quality conveying components tailored to your operation.
