Swedish SME offers to licence an innovative sprocket to manufacturers of mechanical parts in steel

An SME in Sweden, in the mechanical industry, has developed an innovative chain sprocket wheel with exchangable teeth, that it also manufactures. Sprocket wheels are subject to wear and tear, and need to be replaced regularly. They are ofted positioned in such a way that with standard sprocket wheels this process is both time-consuming and ergonomically less ideal. The SME's patent pending quick change system has been designed with attention to ergonomics, environment and time savings in maintenance. This system is suitable both for conveyor and roller chain sprockets, or even crawler track vehicles, and can be manufactured according to the customer's specifications. Units have already proved successful in a conveyor placed in a pulp mill in Sweden. The wear parts and body can, if required, be made of different materials, with a milled contour and therefore gentler for the chain rollers. The sprockets are manufactured as loose teeth, with the same precision as conventional, homogenous sprockets. The SME wishes to expand its business to other countries, mainly European ones, and is therefore looking for partners with technical skills and is offering the partner a licence agreement. The SME seeks a long-term co-operation with a partner who can offer the customers a complete service.
