Standard Conveyors

When you have a simple application and just need to get your product from point A to point B, our Standard Conveyors will move your products seemlessly.

Whether you have the need for a straight, incline or curving application we have the conveyors that will fit your demands and your space. Our Standard Conveyor systems are simple but effective and require very minimal design time to ensure you get your products moving as soon as possible.

Accumulation

Accumulation is the collecting of products on a conveyor to move them as a group instead of individually. Accumulation occurs by halting the product on the conveyor allowing the products behind it to catch up and group together.

Accumulation is needed when you want to move a slug of products through at one time, typically seen when packaging multiple products in a single bundle. Or, if one part of the production cycle runs at a different rate. Or as a safe guard against a line shut down if a machine at the end of the line goes down. You can continue running and accumulate product before the downed machine instead of shutting down the entire line.

While you can accumulate on any of Span Tech’s chains, (other than high friction), we designed Tube Top chain specifically for the accumulation application. By allowing the tubes to roll under the accumulated product Tube Top chain decreases the back pressure felt on the products (back pressure – how squeezed the first products are by all the accumulated products behind it pushing on them). The rolling tubes are also much more gentle on the products that have printed surfaces.

Plastic Conveyor Chains

Stop buying complete belt or chain assemblies for small, worn-out sections. Span Tech’s modular, rebuildable chain components mean easy fixes on your line. Our patented, durable chain designs not only set the industry standard for quality and innovation, but also provide solutions applicable to a variety of products and industries.

Innovative Design – Our chains are completely captured to the conveyor frames, so there is no loose chain on the top or bottom. That means no more troublesome and dangerous catenaries on your line.

Durable – All of our chains are built to last, with a modular design, quiet operation and easy cleaning solutions.
