BMG has established a new facility at BMG Park in Johannesburg, where special attachment chains are assembled to exact requirements in less than one week.
“BMG’s special delivery service enables customers to specify a wide range of standard Tsubaki attachments on any suitable American ANSI or British BS chain product, of up to 50 metres in length,” says Carlo Beukes, BMG’s power transmission product manager. “BMG is the only company in the world, outside of the Tsubaki organisation with accreditation to provide this unique service.
This specialist assembly service means BMG customers don’t need to invest in expensive stock holdings of specialised attachment chains for a specific machine.”
BMG ensures each attachment chain is assembled according to a customer’s exact requirements and delivers in just a couple of days after receipt of the order. This means there is no compromise in terms of component specification and quality standards are guaranteed. Currently only BS and ANSI chains between 1,3 and 2,5 cm are part of this special assembling service. BMG plans to introduce phase two later this year, which will cover double pitch roller chain.
To prevent any miscommunication between the customer and BMG, a technical brochure has been designed that clearly indicates 33 different variations of attachments and extended pins. The worksheet has to be completed, indicating the correct spacing of the required attachments. BMG’s new delivery service is particularly useful to industries such as food and beverage, packaging and automotive manufacturing plants. The complete range of Tsubaki power transmission components is available from BMG’s national branch network, which offers a technical advisory and 24 hour back-up service.
