CUSTOM INDUSTRIAL HANDLING SYSTEMS
Chain conveyors
Chain conveyors are used for the movement of medium and heavy products at low speeds for horizontal straight transport taking into account the possibility of a possible accumulation phase.
The chain is the element that allows transport and, in the industrial sector, is composed of straight pre-stretched carbon steel plate links (simple, double or triple depending on the weight of the product), it can be equipped with idle rollers for the accumulation phase. This type of handling is used for loose products of medium and large size or contained in pallets, especially at the end of the line during the packaging phase for shipping.
In the food sector, however, the chain is composed of acetal plastic links characterized by excellent mechanical resistance and wear with a low friction coefficient. This type of movement is used for products contained in cans or bottles even at medium and high speeds during packaging, bottling or distribution of already packaged products.

Advantages of chain conveyors
The adoption of conveyors brings a series of benefits, measurable both in terms of efficiency and savings on operating costs.
Reduction of manual handling
- Reduction of operator travel: Safe automation of transport reduces downtime and risks associated with manual handling.
- Continuous and controlled flow: electronic management of the belt eliminates most of the interruptions typical of manual systems.
Greater logistics efficiency
- Integration with existing automated systems: Conveyors can be easily connected to production lines, picking systems or sorting plants.
- Reduced operating costs: a linear and controlled work cycle significantly reduces downtime and ensures greater handling speed and efficiency.
