- Adjustable leg height allows for level installation on uneven floors
- Simple design supports quick integration into new or existing conveyor lines
Application Scenarios
- Conveyor lines in a warehouse or factory where flat-bottomed parts move between workstations
- Assembly lines requiring a smooth transition around a corner without powered diverters
- Packaging lines where cartons or trays need to be moved along a curved path
- Production lines with multiple workstations where conveyor height must match operator ergonomics
- Indoor material handling systems where cost and ease of setup are priorities
Who It Is For
- Conveyor system integrators building indoor material handling lines
- Industrial equipment builders needing a cost-effective conveyor for flat-bottomed products
- Manufacturers setting up assembly or packaging lines with curved sections
- Logistics contractors installing conveyors in warehouses with uneven floors
- Industrial distributors stocking conveyors for standard indoor applications
Problems It Solves
- Flat-bottomed products slipping or tipping on standard roller conveyors
- Need for a curved conveyor path without using complex powered or segmented systems
- Installation on uneven floors due to fixed leg height in standard conveyors
- High cost and long lead time for custom conveyor solutions
- Difficulty integrating conveyors into existing lines due to mismatched height or alignment
Technical Features
- Designed for indoor use with no environmental protection beyond basic dry conditions
- Flat-bottomed product conveyance with consistent support along the entire length
- Curved conveying capability without requiring powered rollers or complex joints
- Leg height adjustable to match floor unevenness or workstation height
- Simple roller-based structure for low maintenance and long service life
Materials
- Steel construction for durability and load support in indoor environments
- Steel rollers and frame for consistent performance under normal industrial loads
Quality Control
- Check of leg adjustability across full range of motion
- Visual inspection of frame alignment and roller rotation
- Verification that all mounting holes and fasteners are present and correctly positioned
Customization Options
- Adjustable leg height to suit floor conditions
- Curved sections available upon request for specific path requirements
- Standard steel construction with no options for alternative materials or coatings
Use Guide
- Ensure the product bottom is flat and compatible with steel roller support
- Adjust leg height to level the conveyor on uneven floors before installation
- Use only in indoor environments with dry, stable conditions
- Position curved sections to match the required path without sharp angles
- Verify that the load does not exceed the structural capacity of the steel frame and rollers

Compared With Other Options
| Powered roller conveyors | The steel slat conveyor is passive and lower cost, but requires manual or gravity feed, while powered conveyors can move loads without operator input |
|---|---|
| Belt conveyors | Steel slat conveyors support flat-bottomed loads better and are more durable in heavy-duty indoor use, while belts may stretch or slip under load |
| Standard roller conveyors with fixed legs | This model allows leg height adjustment for uneven floors, while fixed-leg conveyors may not align properly on uneven surfaces |
