Tsubaki's Lambda Chains were the first in the industry to use a special oil-impregnated bush. Since their launch in 1988, they have been adopted for diverse industries and applications, and their performance has been highly rated. Tsubaki has a wide line-up of lube-free, maintenance free, long life products that help customers reduce costs.
As a pioneer in the lube-free / maintenance free chain market, Tsubaki will reveal some of the key elements behind Lambda's outstanding performance:
The 6th generation of Tsubaki Lambda Lube Free chain is supplied as standard with NSF-H1 food grade lubricant impregnated bush. This makes Tsubaki Lambda Chain Series perfectly suitable for applications in the food industry. Bushes impregnated with H3 certified lubricating oil are available on request.
BS Lambda chain can be disassembled quick and safely with an original Tsubaki Chain Tool without damaging the bushes (RS08B-LM-1 to RS16B-LM-1).
Breakage of the chains connecting link is no issue at Tsubaki thanks to this unique feature. By applying the patented Ring Coining process, Tsubaki generates a cold deformation around the pin hole of the connecting link plate. This results in residual stress around the pin hole and thereby adds strength. By using this process transmission capacity is 100% of the base chain.
Tsubaki Lambda has outstanding performance in temperatures up to 150°C. For temperatures above 150°C Tsubaki has a special high-temperature Lambda available. Please contact Tsubaki for more detailed information.
When an application needs water wash downs or is exposed to moisture, and lubrication is not possible or desirable, Lambda Neptune™ is most efficient.
Tsubaki has enhanced the Lambda with the following advantages:
No expensive labour costs as it is not required to manually lubricate this chain.
Lower frequency of purchasing due to the high quality of the chain and it's long economic life.
No purchasing of lubricants or lubrication systems necessary.
No unforeseen downtime due to chain breakdown.
Less time required for maintenance and therefore more time for production.
Applications run clean thus reducing the risk of contaminating products, machines, floor etc.
