KWS Chain-Driven Equipment Down: Seized Pin Won't Press Out

Seized chain pin has stalled your KWS chain-driven system during critical operations.

Fast quotes. Faster pin removal.

Fast quotes. Faster pin removal.

Why Chain Pins Seize

Production line stopped dead by a frozen pin that won't move.

Torch attempts risk damage and crew safety under deadline pressure.

Corrosion, wear, and contamination pack pins tight, blocking restart.

Why This Happens

Corrosion builds rust that locks pins in place. Wear and contamination pack debris into tight tolerances. Load cycling and thermal effects expand then seize components on cooldown.
