Robust Pallet Conveyors Engineered for Stability, Speed, and Gentle Handling.

Move raw materials and finished goods efficiently with systems designed for the realities of industrial pallets. We reduce fork truck dependency and integrate with WCS/MES for real-time tracking of every load entering or leaving your facility.

When Pallet Flow Stalls, the Entire Line Slows Down

Eliminate Pallet Jams

Poor quality pallets often snag on light-duty conveyors, causing jams that require manual prying to release. This damages the product, the pallet, and the equipment, while halting downstream operations.

Stop Tracking Errors

In high-volume operations, losing track of a pallet's ID causes shipping errors. Systems without robust sensors and logic integration fail to maintain the data integrity required for modern supply chains.

Where Pallet Handling Systems Deliver Results

What industries typically use these systems:

Conveyor Types Often Used in Assembly Line Systems

Chain Driven Live Roller (CDLR)

The workhorse of pallet handling; positive drive ensures loads move even when pallets are less than perfect.

Chain Transfers

Pop-up mechanisms that divert pallets at 90-degree angles to change direction or sort loads.

Pallet Dispensers/Stackers:

Automated equipment to feed empty pallets into the line or stack them for removal, reducing manual lifting.

Drag Chain Conveyors

Best for pallets with lengthwise runners or poor bottom conditions that cannot roll smoothly.

Our Proven Process for Engineering Conveyor Systems

Engineering and Custom Design

We assess your pallet variety and load weights to select the correct roller centers and drive types.

Manufacturing and Factory Acceptance Testing

Rugged construction is verified, and logic is tested to ensure proper zone accumulation and traffic control.

On-site Installation and Project Management.

We handle the layout and commissioning, ensuring your pallet flow is smooth from day one.
