The middleweight champion of

zero-pressure-accumulation

conveyors

Whether car seats, truck tires, electric motors, batteries, or
household devices, driven conveyors do not always have to handle
heavy pallets weighing 1,200 kilograms (2,645 pounds). For
automated applications that move goods weighing up to 250 kilograms
(551 pounds), the complete pallet conveyor system is a suitable

expansion solution that stands out for its cost effectiveness, uniform
control, ensuring the flow of goods with zero-pressure accumulation
and plug-and-play functionality.
More and more companies around the world that are seeking to
replace manual work processes with highly streamlined and
automated material-handling processes are using the conveyor belt
