Low Backpressure Pallet System

  Conveyor Types   Roller Chain ConveyorLow Backpressure Roller Chain is the most common type of conveyor used in these applications. The ability to utilize the rollers for high-load accumulation without straining the mechanisms is crucial. The rollers are available in plastic, but more commonly in steel.     Modular Plastic ConveyorModular Plastic Low backpressure Chain is also suitable for accumulating high loads. With smaller rollers, it is easier to accumulate small products or pallets that cannot handle the larger rollers in chains.       Accessories   Metering StopsMetering stops are used to single out products for entry into or exit from a process or station. They can be designed to meter from the side or the bottom in a dual lane system     Lift and LocatesLift and Locates are used to precisely hold a pallet or carrier above a conveyor for accurate positioning. They also elevate the pallet above the belt or chain to eliminate any vibration.       Pusher/CrowdersCrowders are used to push a pallet into a rail or end stop for precise positioning.     ElevatorsAn Elevator/Lowerator is used to vertically move a pallet up or down to construct an over/under system. These are commonly built with pneumatics and timing belts, allowing the conveyor to travel in both directions.     Pop Up TransfersPop-up transfers are used to remove a pallet from the system or redirect a pallet onto another lane. They can be designed into either the ends or the middle of a pallet line.
