Description
The ChainMAX is a mechanical cleaning device for chains used for Küsters presses. A rotating cleaning unit moves crosswise the chains. The system is fully automatic and starts and stops together with the press.
By keeping chains clean, friction will be lower resulting in a longer chain lifetime, lower power on the main drive, and lower oil consumption for lubrication. A clean chain will improve press performance. Today more than 15 Küsters presses are equipped with one or two ChainMAX systems.
