Donghua expands Automatic Chain Cutting Service
Donghua Limited has expanded its automatic chain cutting facilities at its UK headquarters in the Midlands. This development enhances both efficiency and precision, transforming how cut-to-length chain products are customised for customers.
Recognised for its commitment to innovation and quality in chain manufacturing, Donghua’s upgrade to its in-house chain cutting capabilities is another milestone in its customer-focused approach. The expanded service features two fully automated machines, each capable of cutting various chain types and pitch with accuracy and speed.
Precision and Efficiency
The automatic chain cutting machines employ advanced technology to ensure each chain is cut to the exact length required. This precision is crucial for applications where even the slightest deviation can lead to operational issues or mechanical failures. By eliminating manual cutting processes, Donghua reduces errors, delivering products that consistently meets customer specifications.
These machines can handle a wide range of chain sizes from ½” pitch to 1¼” pitch, and are programmed to cut Leaf Chain, Roller Chain and produce Extended Pin Chains.
Increased Capacity and Reduced Lead Times
With two machines now operational, Donghua has doubled its cutting capacity enabling it to meet higher order volumes and reduce lead times further. This ensures faster turnaround times without compromising on quality, benefiting customers in industries where delays can be costly, such as the mining and quarrying industry.
Customer Satisfaction
Delivering tailored solutions is a key differentiator for Donghua in the competitive UK chain manufacturing market. By investing in cutting-edge technology and expanding its facilities, Donghua continues to meet, and exceed, customer expectations.
The automatic chain cutting service allows customers to specify exact measurements, reducing the need for further adjustments on site which is especially valuable for OEMs and maintenance engineers requiring precision-cut chains for immediate installation.
Future Plans
Donghua plans a further two machines, each dedicated to cutting specific chain ranges. For more information visit: https://www.donghua.co.uk/
