1702 Multiflex Chain
1702 is a multiflex case-chain option with shaped links that articulate through the conveyor route. Use the existing chain and track as the starting point for a replacement enquiry.

Compare the Actual Link
Bring the top profile and underside joint into the same dimensional comparison.
Articulated Support Through a Curved Route
The shaped carrying links form a narrow support lane beneath a case or carrier. Their articulation allows the lane to follow a change in direction.
A case base can contact more than one running lane. The position of those contact areas through the bend determines whether the base remains level. Compare the intended lane spacing with the actual feet or ribs beneath the case.

Establish the Replacement Geometry
Measure link spacing over several unworn joints. Compare the underside profile, pin arrangement and engagement with the drive wheel against a dimensioned sample.
Check the tightest route section and the return bend independently. For parallel lanes, establish the product support positions through the turn before fixing lane spacing.
Maintaining a Case-Handling Connection
A multiflex lane is relevant where cases travel between stations through a curved connection. The linked support follows the track beneath the case while separate guides establish the product path.
During a changeover to a different case size, the overall outside width gives only part of the fit information. Narrow feet and recessed bases need support at the correct positions, especially at the curve exit and transfer.
Compare Your 1702 Chain
Send photographs of both sides of the existing link, a dimensioned sample or drawing, and the required length and quantity. Include the track section and case-base layout for CSTRANS to review the replacement.
