Precautions when selecting conveyor chain sprocket

→ Tooth and pitch diameter of sprocket must accurately agree with chain pitch. 
→ For smooth operation, number of sprocket teeth (NT hereafter) is recommended to be 10NT or higher. (At least 10NT is required when used in low speed <10m/min> region or load is uniform) 
→ Sprocket wheel must be machine processed in high speed regino or when precision of speed is required. 
→ Surface hardening is performed when wear resistance is required.
