Chains and belts are pivotal wearing parts in many plants and machines. Because they are constantly in motion, they are subject to especially high stresses and strains. Belts require pre-tensioning and chain links stretch, causing increasingly turbulent movement.
Murtfeldt tensioning systems reliably keep chains and belts at the correct tension and thus increase their lifetime. They have proved their worth around the world over decades of use. Our past experience means that we can provide optimum advice and supply the best possible solution on every occasion.
