Custom Conveyor systems

Overview

Industrial Kinetics Custom Conveyor Systems are engineered solutions designed to meet application requirements that extend beyond standard conveyor configurations. These systems are developed for customers whose processes, loads, environments, or facility constraints require purpose-built material handling equipment rather than catalog products.



Custom conveyors from Industrial Kinetics support palletized loads, unitized loads, carts, vehicles, and process carriers across manufacturing, distribution, assembly, testing, and finishing operations. Each system is engineered to integrate seamlessly with the customer’s process while maintaining the robustness, reliability, and maintainability expected in industrial environments.

Why Choose Us

Industrial Kinetics approaches custom conveyor projects as collaborative engineering efforts focused on delivering reliable, long-term system performance. Early engagement with the customer allows load characteristics, process requirements, facility constraints, and control architecture to be evaluated together, reducing late-stage changes and improving overall system outcomes.



With in-house mechanical design, controls engineering, manufacturing, and integration capabilities, Industrial Kinetics develops custom conveyors as complete systems rather than isolated pieces of equipment. This integrated approach ensures that mechanical design, controls logic, and safety systems are aligned with the customer’s operation from concept through commissioning.

Material Delivery and Dunnage Removal Conveyor system for Parallel Assembly Line, Overhead Material Delivery System

August 29, 2025
A vehicle manufacturer was looking for a new method to deliver materials for the assembly of vehicles to four parallel assembly lines. IK developed, engineered, and implemented an overhead pallet conveyor system that provided great benefits to the vehicle manufacturer.

System Integration

Custom Conveyor Systems are designed to integrate with upstream and downstream processes, automation, and control platforms. Industrial Kinetics coordinates mechanical design, controls logic, and safety systems to ensure smooth material flow and predictable operation. Systems may interface with palletizers, AS/RS, robotic cells, transfer equipment, or enterprise-level control systems depending on application needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What makes a conveyor system “custom”?

    A custom conveyor is engineered specifically for a customer’s load, process, environment, and facility constraints rather than selected from a standard catalog.

  • Can custom conveyors combine multiple conveyor types?

    Yes. Many custom systems combine rollers, chains, belts, transfers, and inspection equipment into a single integrated solution.

  • How early should Industrial Kinetics be involved in a project?

    Early involvement allows system design to align with process requirements, facility layout, and future expansion plans.

  • Are custom systems scalable or expandable?

    Custom conveyors are often designed with future expansion, additional zones, or new processes in mind.

  • Does Industrial Kinetics support controls and commissioning?

    Yes. Industrial Kinetics provides controls integration, commissioning support, and startup assistance to ensure system performance meets expectations.
