Observing the literature available on the topic, we have noted the absence of analysis of roller chains manufactured from carbon fibre. We plan to do a comprehensive study on the topic, noting the increase in the use of carbon fibre in different industries along with its advantages.The chain is subjected to a practical fatigue testing followed by a F.E. Analysis to find effects of load and further compare and verify the practical results. Results thus obtained are used to delineate the predicted advantages of the modified chain over conventional steel one. It will thus be shown that carbon fibre chain will be more feasible in application. Use of computer software can help us in the optimization of the results and find out the percentage change in the practical and software analyses. Since some work has already been done in other mechanical analyses, in this paper the focus has been narrowed down specifically to fatigue analysis only. We have made use of composite material for chain link to minimize the weight of link.
