Roller Chains - Probably the
most frequent power transmission method used on the vehicles on the
site. Roller chains are widely available and routinely used in
industry for mechanical power transmission. They come in a range of
pitch lengths and the UK and US (an others) use different specs.
Most of the Unite manufactured drive motors are fitted with US spec
roller chain sprockets and this might dictate which chains you use.
Otherwise 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" (or their metric equivalents) pitch
chains are most likely to be of use in smaller vehicle or robot
designs. |
