Problems It Solves

  • Loads that need to change direction at a conveyor end without powered diverters
  • Operators pushing cartons or parts across a fixed deck plate using hand force
  • Transfer tables between two lines running at right angles
  • Decks in wet or washdown areas where carbon steel units would corrode
  • Mixed load weights requiring multiple load ratings on the same deck

Who It Is For

  • Conveyor builders designing transfer and rotation points into material handling lines
  • Sheet metal shops moving heavy blanks onto cutting or forming machines
  • Material handling equipment makers building ball decks and transfer tables
  • Industrial distributors stocking ball transfer units by load rating and mounting type

Why This Range

  • Nine model series across two load ranges with load capacity and max load capacity published per model
  • Flange mount and press mount options for different deck construction methods
  • Case made from nylon for low friction and resistance to wear and chemicals
  • Ball material available in nylon, steel, or stainless steel to match load and environment
  • Unit weight listed for each model to support deck load calculations

Application Scenarios

  • Ball decks at the discharge end of a roller conveyor for load redirection
  • Transfer tables between two conveyor lines running at right angles
  • Sheet metal loading tables feeding a press brake or laser cutter
  • Die change trolleys where a heavy tool is pushed sideways into position
  • Assembly stations where a fixture is turned by hand between operations

NL Series Questions

How do I choose the right model for my load?

Match the load per unit to the load capacity of the model, ensuring peak loads stay under the maximum load capacity.

What is the difference between flange mount and press mount?

Flange mount units are bolted through a flange and allow for removal and service, while press mount units are pressed into a hole and install faster.

Can I get stainless steel balls in these units?

Yes, the ball material can be supplied in stainless steel for use in wet or washdown environments.

Which ball material should I use on painted surfaces?

Use a nylon ball to avoid marking painted surfaces, or steel if marking is not a concern.

Do you publish the weight of each unit?

Yes, the weight of each model is listed in the specifications for deck load calculations.

Which series should I start with?

Start with the required load capacity, then select the series that offers that rating in the mounting style your deck allows.
