Gravity Conveyors
Smart, power-saving solutions: Gravity conveyors and skatewheel conveyors.
Gravity conveyors are an extremely cost effective material handling and accumulation innovation. No power is required, which can save you plenty on your energy bill, and gravity conveyors offer a streamlined way to convey at an angle (though declines are typically limited to 4 to 7° based on the weight and bottom flatness of the cartons). Skatewheel conveyors are a great option for lighter-weight loads, with a smoother flow than other roller conveyors. Skatewheel conveyors are frequently used with lighter material handling needs, such as in shipping departments. More information.
Common applications for gravity conveyors:
- Receiving, packing, shipping, stocking and assembly lines (skatewheel conveyors)
- Lean cells
- Sorter divert spurs
