👉 Chain engineering, also known as chain design or chain manufacturing, is the process of designing, fabricating, and assembling chains to meet specific mechanical requirements. It involves selecting the appropriate materials, determining the chain's geometry (such as chain length, pitch, and cross-section), and ensuring proper wear resistance, strength, and durability. Engineers consider factors like load distribution, friction, and environmental conditions to optimize chain performance. The process includes creating detailed drawings or models, using computer-aided design (CAD) software for precision, and manufacturing the chain through methods like rolling, drawing, or forging. Finally, quality control measures are implemented to ensure the chain meets design specifications and performs reliably under intended operating conditions.
