The history of the chain can be traced back a thousand years ago，We have used the rural seventeen hundred years，The ancient structure is a chain conveyor chain bucket elevator。Similar conveyance machinery。Whether in China is still the world's other ancient civilizations，Are recorded

　　Modern chain conveyor in the early stages of development，Due to the time constraints of the overall level of society，So the chain has been relatively slow pace of development。Until the early 20th century，The pace of development on various social surge of industrial machinery，Increase the development of the market chain。These factors led to the development of the chain industry。

　　In the process of development of the chain conveyor，In addition to the chain of product development and the emergence of new materials，Enhance the function of the chain conveyor，Improve the overall strength and rigidity。But the advent of the computer，The development of the chain conveyor is also a great impetus。Electrical control system in the chain conveyor coupled with a high-precision, high reliability, speed control, signal acquisition, signal transduction, logic execution is controlled electrical chain conveyor with rapid development。
