MSS Conveyor Systems

Gravity Conveyors – This type of non-powered conveyors are typically roller, skatewheel
or flow rails. They can be set up level as push lines or declining for a gravity flow. Brake
rollers can be installed on the line to control the speed of the product. Supports can be
used for a permanent installation or tripod supports can be used which allow the
system to be set up and taken down as needed.

Powered Roller Conveyor – These conveyors with a roller bed can be powered by a
belt running under the top rollers (Belt Driven Live Roller) or by a drive shaft running under
the rollers with O-rings connecting the shaft to the rollers (Line Shaft Conveyors) or the
rollers can have sprockets welded to the end of the rollers with a chain connecting the
rollers (Chain Driven Live Roller). All of these conveyors are available as transportation
type, to convey from point to point, or as accumulation type which allows product to
stop and product to accumulate behind it.

Belt Conveyors – These conveyors will have a belt running over the top of either a slider
bed or a roller bed. The belt can be a typical PVC type or a flat wire belt.
Conveyors can be horizontal or inclined.

Overhead Conveyors – These conveyors use a chain running either inside a tube or
trolleys riding on a beam on which products are hung from hooks attached to the chain.
They can be used to move products from point to point or to store products overhead.

Other Conveyors – Many other types and configurations are available. Vertical conveyors
or lifts that change elevations in lines can be reciprocating or high speed continuous lifts.
Stainless Steel conveyors for food processing and wash down operations. Turn tables,
curves, pop-up transfers and transfer cars to change direction of flow in conveyor lines.
For loading/unloading of trucks extendable conveyors both powered or gravity.
