Pallet Design for Pallet-Handling Conveyors
Pallets are a critical component in workpiece pallet-handling conveyor systems. The size and weight of the product to be conveyed will dictate many of the parameters of not only the pallet but also the conveyors. The processes and flow of the pallets will also affect the design of the pallet. [...]
The Role of Timing Belt Conveyors in Pallet-Handling Systems
Pallet-handling conveyor systems are comprised of a variety of different conveyor types, the most versatile of which is the timing belt conveyor. In this article we will explore the many ways timing belt conveyors are used in pallet-handling systems. Additionally, this conveyor platform is not limited to one particular industry, [...]
Custom Pallet-Handling Conveyor Modules
No two conveyor applications are the same. Different products and processes require different conveyors. Various factory configurations require different layouts. Output demands, cycle times and so much more can affect the conveyor system layout. Thankfully, there is a wide array of modules, pneumatic and electric, that can really bring a [...]
Accumulating Roller Chains for Conveyors
Accumulating Roller Chain Styles Accumulating roller chain conveyors are the ideal conveyor platform for accumulating and storing pallets. This is due to the type of chain used in these conveyors (see image below). Conveyors, such as the SRF-P 2045 and SRF-P 2010, which are designed using this chain, accumulate pallets [...]
