- Modular design supports quick assembly and integration into existing lines
- Cost-effective solution for light weight product transfer without power requirements
- Suitable for flat-bottomed products that need smooth, consistent movement
Application Scenarios
- Assembly lines where light components are moved between workstations
- Warehouse packing stations where small items are conveyed to packing tables
- Loading docks where light goods are transferred from one level to another
- Production cells requiring temporary or reconfigurable conveyance paths
- Ergonomic workstations where operators need to move parts by hand
Who It Is For
- Conveyor system integrators building low-cost transfer solutions
- Manufacturers setting up temporary or reconfigurable production lines
- Warehouse and logistics contractors installing flexible handling systems
- Industrial distributors stocking modular conveyors for quick delivery
- Production line builders needing adjustable height and mobility
Problems It Solves
- Need for a low-cost, non-powered conveyor that can be moved between locations
- Inflexible conveyor systems that cannot adapt to changing work heights
- Difficulty in integrating conveyors into existing layouts without major modifications
- Lack of mobility in fixed conveyor systems that must be repositioned frequently
- Requirement for a simple solution to move light products without electrical components
Technical Features
- Adjustable leg height to match different floor or workbench levels
- Castors on the frame allow the entire conveyor to be rolled into position
- Gravity-driven operation eliminates need for motors or power supply
- Modular roller bed supports flat-bottomed products with consistent movement
- Designed for light weight product handling with no specified load rating
Materials
- Steel frame for structural stability and durability
- Steel rollers for consistent load support and wear resistance
- Castors with rubber or polyurethane wheels for floor protection and smooth movement
Quality Control
- Rollers checked for free rotation and alignment across the frame
- Castors tested for smooth movement and stability on different floor types
- Adjustable legs verified for secure locking at selected heights
- Frame structure inspected for weld integrity and straightness
Customization Options
- Adjustable leg height to match specific work surface or floor level
- Option to select castor type based on floor surface (e.g. rubber for soft floors, polyurethane for hard floors)
- Roller spacing and length available in standard configurations upon request
Use Guide
- Ensure the conveyor is set to the correct height to match the adjacent work surface
- Check that all castors are locked in place before use to prevent movement
- Keep the roller bed clear of debris to maintain smooth product movement
- Use only flat-bottomed products to avoid tipping or jamming
- Avoid overloading the conveyor with items heavier than light weight applications
