Printing Industry

The UK Printing industry uses cutting-edge production technologies. Companies operating in this sector require chain that is durable, reliable and a long wear-life to help minimise production downtime.

Chain supplied to the Printing Industry Chain is supplied in a variety of materials and finishes:

Preloading of Chain – to help reduce fatigue and extend the wear life of chain, Donghua’s Attachment Chain is pre-loaded as standard. Chain with little or no pre-load applied will suffer significant elongation during initial use and will need to be changed sooner. This results in increased down-time. 

Matching of Chain – we match our Attachment Chain to within very close tolerances to ensure the attachment links engage with the sprockets together. This eliminates undue stress which is a major cause of fatigue failures on attachments.

Reduced Maintenance – where chain maintenance is difficult or needs to be minimised, our Self-Lubricating chain is the ideal solution.
