Conveyor Systems for Automated Material Handling
Conveyors play a critical role in automated systems by controlling how loads are transferred, positioned, and handed off between equipment. Industrial Kinetics designs conveyor products that integrate with robotics, Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS), and Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) to maintain consistent, repeatable flow. Each solution is engineered around load characteristics, interface requirements, and system timing.
Conveyor Products for Automation and Robotic Integration
AMR / AVG Interface Conveyors
Conveyors designed to transfer loads between fixed conveyor systems and Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) or Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs). These systems maintain precise alignment and elevation to support repeatable pickup and discharge. Designs are based on load type, positioning requirements, and interface timing to ensure consistent handoff.
Robotic Pick Conveyors
Conveyors that present products to robotic picking systems in a controlled and repeatable manner. Typically incorporate Motor Driven Live Roller (MDR) or belt-driven designs to regulate spacing and orientation. These conveyors support accurate product presentation for vision systems and robotic end-of-arm tooling.
Automated Load Stackers
Equipment used to stack unit loads such as pallets, cases, or totes in a controlled sequence. These systems manage load positioning and vertical movement to build stable stacks for storage or downstream handling. Designs are based on load dimensions, weight, and stacking patterns.
Pallet Inserters
Machines that automatically introduce pallets into a material handling flow at defined points in the system. Used to prepare loads for palletizing or to replenish pallet supply in automated lines. Systems are designed to align pallets accurately with conveyors and downstream equipment.

Making Kinetics Work For You
Industrial Kinetics was founded on January 20, 1969 with a simple premise: conveyor systems should be engineered around real operating conditions, not forced from a catalog. More than five decades later, that principle still defines how we work. From our manufacturing facility in Downers Grove, Illinois, we design and build engineered conveyor systems for demanding industrial environments across North America. Our focus is unit load and heavy-duty pallet handling where uptime, stability, and integration accuracy directly affect revenue.
We know how to make the science of “kinetics” work for you. Our designing and manufacturing of productivity tools in the form of material handling equipment range from the integration of new technologies into existing systems, to the complete design/build requirements of massive, new automated turnkey operations.
From the simplest conveyor equipment to the complexities of highly technical robotic parts manipulation, we are your single-source answer to even the most difficult questions of material handling. We offer superior quality equipment and state-of-the-art controls on our standard as well as our custom engineered systems.
