A U-shaped dunnage conveyor system, featuring chain-driven live roller and pop-up chain transfer, is ideal for automotive manufacturing applications. The system is rated to handle loads up to 4,000 pounds.
It conveys an empty, single-layer dunnage container to a workstation for filling with parts, then supports the addition of another layer of dunnage on top supplied from the same location.
For maximum production efficiency, the equipment can be completely automated for independent operation.
Chain Transfers Conveyors provide a method for right angle, directional changes from within Chain Driven Live Roller Conveyors. They consist of a pneumatic lift device that projects a series of chain strands up through the gap between the chain rollers, to drive the heavy load offline. These conveyors are commonly used to move heavier, larger loads such as: pallets, containers or other unit loads onto adjoining conveyors, work stations and load/ unload zones.
