Slat Chain Conveyors
Slat chain conveyors use rigid, flat-top plastic or metal slats linked together to form a continuous transport surface. They excel at moving heavy, rigid, or unstable products such as filled bottles, cartons, and packaged goods, even through curves, elevation changes, and high-speed runs. Their modular design allows for custom layouts, while the flat surface ensures stable product orientation and prevents jamming. They are widely used in beverage, food, and packaging industries for mainline product transport.
Roller Conveyors
Roller conveyors consist of rotating metal or plastic rollers mounted in a frame, creating a low-friction surface for moving heavy loads. They are ideal for transporting rigid, flat-bottomed items like pallets, cases, and drums, either horizontally or at slight inclines. Powered by motors or gravity, they offer low maintenance and high durability, making them a staple in distribution centers, warehouses, and end-of-line packaging operations for product accumulation, merging, and transfer.
Ball Transfer Units (Ball Conveyors)
Ball transfer units use free-spinning ball bearings embedded in a plate to enable multi-directional movement of products. They are commonly installed in workstations, sorting areas, or conveyor junctions to allow manual or automated rotation, turning, and redirection of boxes, packages, or parts. Their low-profile design and omnidirectional capability make them perfect for applications requiring flexible product handling without complex machinery, such as assembly lines and shipping docks.
Mesh Belt Conveyors
Mesh belt conveyors use open, woven metal or plastic belts with a grid-like structure. This design allows air, water, or heat to pass through, making them ideal for applications like drying, cooling, washing, or baking food products, as well as handling small, loose items. The mesh construction is lightweight yet durable, offering good drainage and ventilation, and can be customized for different temperatures and chemical environments in food processing, pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing.
Belt Conveyors
Belt conveyors feature a continuous loop of flexible rubber, PVC, or fabric belt driven by pulleys. They are versatile and cost-effective, suitable for transporting light to medium-weight products, including loose parts, packaged goods, and bulk materials. Available in flat, inclined, or cleated designs, they can handle both horizontal and angled movement, and are often used in production lines, assembly processes, and material handling systems for gentle, low-noise transport.
Conveyor Control Systems
Conveyor control systems are the central nervous system of automated material handling lines, coordinating the speed, direction, and synchronization of all connected conveyors. Using PLCs, sensors, and variable frequency drives (VFDs), they regulate product flow, prevent bottlenecks, and adjust line speeds in real time to match upstream/downstream processes. Advanced systems include features like accumulation control, fault detection, and recipe management, ensuring smooth, efficient, and safe operation of the entire production line.
