What Is a Tensioner?

Tensioner is a commonly used holding device on belt and chain transmission systems. It is characterized in that the belt and chain can have proper tension during the transmission process, so as to prevent the belt from slipping or avoid tooth skipping and tooth loss. Drag out.

Or prevent the chain from loosening and falling off, and reduce the wear on the sprocket and chain. The structure of the tensioner is various, which generally includes a fixed structure and an elastic automatic adjustment structure. The fixed structure mostly uses a fixed and adjustable sprocket to adjust the tension of the belt and the sprocket. Automatic rebound controls the tension of belts and chains. Domestically adjustable chain tensioners mostly use spring structures, while foreign tensioners mostly use rubber components.

Have the proper tension
In effect, the tensioner using a spring structure is simple in construction and cheap, so it is more commonly used. The tensioner using rubber parts has a longer life than a spring due to its good elastic properties. The performance requirements are relatively high and the price is expensive, so it is rarely used, and it is usually applied to high-end machinery and equipment.
