POST TEST

IDENTIFICATION

1. A type of chain drives that is usually made of malleable cast iron and operates at a slow speed of
about 0.8 to 3m/s.
2. It is used for the transmission of mechanical power when the distance between the centers of
shaft is short.
3. What are the 2 types of conveyor chain?
4. This type of chain was used in the initial stage of development in power transmission.
5. A type of chain which is designed to eliminate the bad effects caused by stretching and to create
noiseless walking and also known as an inverted tooth chain.

6-7. Give to advantages of chain drives.

8. TRUE or FALSE. Closed joint type chain is used in a conveyor where the length between power
transmissions is short.

9-11. Give the 3 types of power transmitting chains.

12. Give at least one important factors in chain drive selection.

13. TRUE or FALSE. Sprockets should have a minimum of 17 teeth.

14. This type of chain consists of a barrel and link and is made into a single casting, then the chain is
heat-treated to provide high strength.

15. It is a device for raising or lowering a load using a drum or a lifting wheel around which a rope or
chain is wound.
