The right material and heat treating are critical for long life in this tough environment. All our products are designed under our ISO 9001:2015 quality management system.

Whether a power generation facility is fueled by traditional coal or newer biomass, the requirement to bring in fuel, spin a turbine, and transport ash out remains constant. Our drag chain, conveyors, and power transmission chains can be specified for the unique energy production environment. Our commitment to quality in design, material selection, and manufacturing means our chains will ensure maximum uptime.

We supply stainless steel, metallic and non-metallic chains for use in food production and processing. The are manufactured to be corrosion resistant and food safe. Whether the need is to transport raw goods through the harvesting and sorting process, or the finished goods after packing, our chains are designed for long life and minimal maintenance in both wet and dry environments.

Connexus provides products for every facet of the sawmill and lumber production industry. Our products include metal detectors used before logs enter the mill, through to lasers to help guide precision band saw cutting, and all the chains and conveyors in between to sort, prepare, and move material around the mill. We have deep experience customizing innovative solutions for every stage of wood products manufacturing.

Since the 1940s, Connexus has been developing and producing conveyor components for severe service applications such as pulp and paper manufacturing, and the power generation, cement production and mining industries. Our extensive knowledge of materials, heat treating, and quality manufacturing process enables us to provide the best product for your application. Our experienced engineering staff combined with our production team work together to deliver a solution that will outperform your expectations.

When you need to lift thousands of pounds, you need a dependable chain for safety and smooth operation. Requirements for heavy-duty lifting capabilities can be in contained environments like warehousing or factories, cold storage, or in outdoor applications such as ports and shipyards. Connexus has experience engineering leaf chains for the most demanding environments to exact customer specifications.

Connexus Industries wide portfolio of chains, conveyors, buckets and other products means we can power the production line of almost any manufacturer. Our engineers can work with you on the unique specifications to achieve an efficient and profitable process that can withstand the rigors of 24/7 continuous operations, even in hot, corrosive, or wet conditions.

Whether working above or below the surface, chains used in mining need to be durable, shock resistant, and able to move heavy loads. Through our many decades of engineering and manufacturing experience we have developed a range of chains and conveyors that perform in the field.

Unscheduled downtime can be catastrophic for a pulp and paper mill’s profits. You need chains to power your process that can be relied on to perform continuously between scheduled shutdowns. We carry a range of chains and conveyors that can be produced to your unique specification. From welded steel chains, apron conveyors, or steel roller chains, we manufacture them all within our ISO 9001:2015 quality management plan for performance and reliability.

Based on our extensive past experiences and in cooperation with major sugar producers in South America, we have developed chains with the highest performance, strength, and longevity in the most severe applications in sugar mills. Through the selection of the highest quality materials, optimal heat treatment of components, and rigorous quality control procedures, you can rely on our chains through the entire sugar production process from cane feeding and washing to bagasse conveyor and beyond.
