Conveyor Transfers

Conveyor Transfers are used to move a package from one conveyor to another.These are used to orientate a product perpendicular to the flow of a conveyor.


Types of Conveyor Transfers

Conveyor Chain Transfers

Conveyor chain transfers are typically used in Chain Drive Live Roller (CDLR) conveyor to pick up the product and transverse it perpendiclar to the CDLR Conveyor flow. Chain Transfers come in many styles and variations such as between rail chain transfers, extended style chain transfers, and conveyor to conveyor chain transfers.

Conveyor Belt Transfers

Conveyor belt transfers are typically used to convey a product perpendicular to flow in a roller conveyor. Some key advantages of a belt transfer are no lubrication required, surface will not mar product, and belt changeout is very simple.

Conveyor Roller Transfers

Conveyor roller transfers are used to transport products perpendicular to the direction of flow of the conveyor they are attached. Roller transfers are typically used within drag chain conveyors. These transfers normally pop up between chain strands and are powered by either a chain linked gear motor or by motorized rollers.
