EFFICIENT VERTICAL TRANSPORT

CHC Newsletter: Span Tech FeatureOptimizing floor space while maintaining efficiency is crucial in today's fast paced manufacturing environment. Span Tech's wedge conveyor is an ideal solution for vertical elevation and product transfer, designed to handle a wide range of products with precision and reliability.
 
The wedge conveyor is an innovative system engineered to efficiently and securely transport products vertically while saving space. It operates using a unique concept that holds the product securely between two parallel conveyor chains or belts, which converge to grip the item. The conveyor lifts the product either vertically or at an incline, ensuring safe and effective transport.  The dual conveyor gripping involves two synchronized conveyors, positioned closely together, to securely hold the product between them. The chains, equipped with specialized grips or surfaces, firmly retain the product without causing damage.
 
Designed for vertical or steep inclined transport, the wedge conveyor is perfect for moving products between different facility levels. Its compact design helps save valuable floor space compared to traditional incline or spiral conveyors. The system is highly adaptable, capable of handling various product sizes and shapes within the conveyor's weight and size limits. Often used for lightweight items like packaged goods, bottles, or boxes, the wedge conveyor ensures smooth, consistent movement without slipping or falling.
 
The conveyor integrates seamlessly with upstream and downstream equipment, gently gripping products at the entry, securely transporting them, and smoothly releasing them at the exit for continuous flow. Additionally, the system is customizable to accommodate specific product dimensions, speeds, and facility layouts.
