Timken Belts

A food processing plant encountered persistent challenges in maintaining and lubricating its overhead chain-driven conveyors. These conveyors were in a hard-to-access location, with a lack of lubrication causing frequent chain failures. It was determined that just three sizes of the Panther? XT synchronous belt could replace all the current chain sizes – and also eliminate the need for lubrication. The result? The plant saved time and money by simplifying inventory requirements for replacement parts and minimizing maintenance.
