A
s one of the
world’s premier
manufacturers
of power
transmission products,
Tsubakimoto has
developed a wide range
of reliable products,
specifically designed to
meet the tough working
environment of the paper
and pulp industry. To help
those involved in operating
and maintaining the
many processes of paper
manufacture achieve their
performance and efficiency
goals, Tsubaki has
released a comprehensive
product brochure, which is
available on its website.
From beginning to end,
the paper manufacturing
process involves the
continuous movement
of materials from the
original woodchip to the
finished paper roll and
each process can benefit
from the expertise of
Tsubaki’s design engineers.
From drive chain and
sprockets to couplings
and reduction gearboxes,
Tsubaki can deliver a wide
range of products that
will reduce the total cost
of ownership (TCO) and
improve productivity and
profitability.
The operating environment
within a typical paper
manufacturing facility
is often laden with dust
that can stick to drive
chains and block the
conventional lubrication
path. This can cause
increased levels of wear
in the drive chains, which
will need more frequent
maintenance, increasing
costs and possibly reducing
productivity and efficiency.

Tsubaki has developed
a range of products,
such as Lambda chain,
which is a lube-free chain
with oil impregnated
sintered bushes that
retain lubricant, thereby
negating the need for
external lubrication and
extends the wear-life of
chain dramatically. This
can be matched with a
drive chain sprocket that
has a deep hardened layer
over the entire component
that provides excellent
wear resistance for a long
service life.
Derek Mack, Sales Director
for Tsubaki UK, concludes:
“Tsubaki invests heavily
in R&D and offers a wide
range of products which
have been designed for
all types of industries and
environments. This means
that for most applications,
even traditional hard
wearing ones, we are able
to specify a solution which
will last many times longer
than a basic chain. We will
conduct a site visit prior
to specification to make
sure that we understand
the unique requirements of
every job and can offer an
accurate estimate for our
chain’s TCO.”
