The chain types used in this market sector are typically non standard, and are supplied with a wide range of attachments; some of these processes also demand extremely high breaking loads which can be in excess of 100,000 lbs breaking load, it is with this in mind the chain manufacture is stringently controlled in terms of material types, heat treatments, breaking loads and tolerances. Typically our chains are regularly utilised within Steel Ingot Casting Machinery and also used by steel producers to pull furnace dollies/bogies loaded with steel into and out of hearth type furnaces.
Our vast experience, working with a wide range of companies both large and small, has enabled a great library of internal knowledge within our business expertise, which can only assist in ensuring the correct solution is found for each customer’s requirements. Our experiences can assist in ensuring repeatability for re-supply of existing components, or re-design/up-grade of new bespoke components as and when required.
From our vast experience we understand the costs involved if production stops for even the smallest amount of time and this is why we work closely with our customers to ensure the agreed manufacturing timeline is maintained in terms of delivery to ensure minimum downtime. This necessitates a must do attitude in parts being completed correct to tolerance and schedule. It is with this in mind Silcoms has been able to cement a reputation second to none.
