Here are some more information for Chain Drive Gear:

If you are a cyclist, then you know how hard our chain rings are working for us. Each time we pedal to make those strokes that propels the bike forward, the chain works continuously in high tension. Mainly, the chain is primarily the essential component for a bicycle drive train.
Understanding your bike chain
You have to know that they do wear out over time. As it is a mechanical component, you have to maintain them. There are 3 parts of the chains, namely the inner plate, chain pin and outer plate. The pin is responsible for attaching the inner and outer plates in place, forming a long chain.
Other than delivering motion for the front and back motion, it also has its sideway movements. This is also known as lateral movement. Lateral movement is necessary for you to change gears. After prolonged usage, the chain will elongate. With higher elongation, its lateral movements also increase (affecting gear shifting).
How to prolong your chain's life
You have to clean your bike chain regularly. Of course, this depends on where you ride your bikes. Generally, mountain bikers will need to clean their chain more often. Use a scrub brush and water mixed with dish soap (or bio-degreaser). Switch gears so that the chain wraps the biggest gear in front (sprocket with most teeth). Position your brush at the bottom part of the chain while pedaling backwards with your hand. For stubborn dirt, use a screwdriver to prod it out.
However, you also need to make sure the sprocket the chain runs on is clean. Therefore, use a toothbrush to clean the teeth of the sprocket.
After you are done with cleaning your chain and sprocket teeth, you should always dry them with a cloth or rag. This keeps moisture out. In most cases, the chain and sprocket is made from steel. Keeping the moisture out will prevent rust.
How and when you should lubricate your chain?
Lubrication is key. Lubrication can prevent rust and other dirt problems.
But only lubricate a clean chain. There is no point in lubricating a dirty chain. At least, do a quick wipe before lubricating it, if you cannot afford a full cleaning session. Experienced riders like to lube their chain one night before heading out for rides.
Position the lube on the inner side of the chain and pedal backwards slowly. Make sure each roller gets lubricated. During the next morning, you should wipe off any excess from the outer plates.
Generally, you would want to get a wet lubricant. This is especially true if you need to use your bike for a very long duration or muddy conditions. As for dry lubricants, they tend to flake off with usage and do not stay as long as wet lubes. Therefore, dry lubes are only suitable for dusty environments. This is because dry lubes and dust do not mix together.

Role Of Supply Chain In Indian Organized Retail Sector
Role of Supply Chain in Indian Organized Retail Sector
Introduction:
The role of supply chain in Indian organized retail is very significant for on it depends the growth of this sector. The Indian Supply Chain Council have been formed to explore the challenges that a retailer faces and to find possible solutions for India.
The role of supply chain in the organized retail sector in India should be a shelf- centric partnership between the retailer and the manufacture for this will create supply chains that are loss free. This will also give rise to top and bottom line growth. In the organized retail sector in India the presence of fresh produce (vegetables and fruits) is very small. This is so for the nature of supply chain is very fragmented. This shows the important role of supply chain in the organized retail sector in India.
In the organized retail market in India, the role of supply chain is very important for the Indian customer demands at affordable prices a variety of product mix. It is the supply chain that ensures to the customer in all the various offerings that a company decides for its customers, be it cost, service, or the quickness in responding to ever changing tastes of the customer.
The infrastructure in India in terms of road, rail, and air links are not sufficient. And so warehousing plays a major role as an aspect of supply chain operations. To overcome these problems, the Indian retailer is trying to reduce transportation costs and is investing in logistics through partnership or directly. The Indian organized retail sector is growing so the role of supply chain becomes all the more important. It should become all the more responsive and adaptive to customers demand. There is also need for the supply chain to be more cost efficient and collaborative to win the immense competition in this sector.
The role of supply chain in Indian organized retail has expanded over the years with the boom in this industry. The growth of the Indian retail industry to a large extent depends on supply chain, so efforts must be made by the Indian retailers to maintain it properly.
Supply chain and retail: The means to the end
A retail revolution is happening in the country. For global giants looking at newer markets, India presents exciting opportunities on account of its vast middle-class and a virtually untapped retail industry.
The Indian retail sector has seen unprecedented growth in the last few years. The KPMG report, `Consumer Markets in India: the next big thing has predicted that the organized retail sector is expected to grow at rate higher than GDP growth in the next five years. The AT Kearney's 2006 Global Retail Development Index positions India as a leading destination for retail investment.
The success in this competitive and dynamic sector depends on achieving an efficient logistics and supply chain, which can be provided by professionals, as they combine the best systems and expertise to manage a ready flow of goods and services.
The retail boom promises to give an impetus to a host of allied sectors and the logistics industry, as the backbone of the retail sector, stands to gain the maximum.
In India, the logistics market is mainly thought to mean transportation. But the major elements of logistics cost for industries include transportation, warehousing, inventory management, courier and other valued-added services such as packaging.
The logistics costs account for 13 per cent of GDP. The industry is currently on an upswing and is poised for a growth of 20 per cent in the coming years.
With the expansion of retail, supply chain will take on an increasingly important role. With the end consumer becoming more demanding and time conscious, the need for just-in-time services is increasing. In retail, where competition is intense and stakes are high, customer satisfaction is paramount.
Network critical
Industry experts opine that in India too the large retail chains will follow the global model of outsourcing their logistics so as to better manage complex supply chains and focus on their core business.
For the retail chains in agri-produce, efficiency of logistics is critical and can indeed leverage the brand to a great extent. The main asset retailers realize is that knowing what is selling and what is not can improve the inventory processes. Inventory is the biggest cost factor, and if not managed well, it can also be the biggest drain. That's why retailers and their trading partners today set store by the inventory process and its impact.
Effective SCM enables:
Realistic ordering lead-times: Suppliers are not surprised by the next order. Retailers respond better to demand spikes, minimize forced markdowns and avoid obsolete-inventory costs.
Averting problems: Stores easily identify potential stock-outs and request replenishment before the inventory drops to zero. Deciding to de-list or replace a product is easier.
Facilitating resource planning and allocation: Product forecasts and supply schedules are easily converted to perform space planning, establish staffing needs and organise inbound/outbound shipments. Financial experts can plan cash flow and analyse margins into the future.
Four R's of SCM:
Follow the 4 `R's of SCM — Right time, Right place, Right price, Right quantity — to reap the advantages of:
The key players in the logistics industry are gearing up to meet the challenges by initiating both organic and inorganic growth to leverage the retail opportunity. Logistics firms have also started focusing on related services such as Customs clearing and forwarding, inbound warehousing, labeling and packaging, fleet management, order picking and inventory management.
Cold Chain
The booming retail sector has set off growth in the cold chain segment as well. It is a highly specialized service and caters to time sensitive and perishable items. The cold chain industry is growing at 20-25 per cent. However, there is an urgent need to establish the necessary infrastructure for an effective cold chain.
Excellent retail supply chain management revolves around understanding and balancing three key dimensions of availability, inventory and cost. Managing these trade-offs efficiently can result in supply chains that improve business performance and drive competitive advantage.
In order to enable to grow in these complex and highly competitive environment retailers must focus on three key strategy imperatives:
- Provide a high quality, differentiated customer experience by carrying the right products, at the right price and by reducing out of stocks
