Also known as an expandable conveyor, Flexible Conveyors are useful where movability, manueverability and flexibility are necessary to transport goods. They come in either gravity or electric powered models and use steel rollers or skatewheels on the conveyor surface and has castors on it’s legs to make it moveable. These conveyors are suitable for shipping and receiving departments or other high traffic areas where products need to be moved into or out of trucks because it can be expanded into the truck itself.
Horizontal crossbelt sorters are characterized by their flexible, space-utilizing routing with curves that also conquer inclines and slopes. Feeds and destinations can be arranged in various ways and optimized to increase the system’s performance. With an appropriate layout, it is possible to create several sorting areas with just one cycle. The horizontal crossbelt sorter is also perfectly suited for small spaces. For example, two crossbelt sorters with identical routes can be installed one on top of the other, i.e., doubled up. Horizontal crossbelt sorters can recirculate goods that have either not been recognized by identification technology or have not been discharged because all destinations were full.
With Belt Over Roller Conveyors, the belt can be either slider bed supported or supported by return rollers located underneath the load rollers. Belt On Roller Conveyors are fairly common types of powered conveyors and usually hae rubber belts of strong ply and thickness. This conveyor provides much control over the orientation and placement of loads, which can be good for bulky, irregularly shaped products. Because product orientation is easily controlled with this conveyor, it also makes a good conveyor to use in induction and sortation conveyor systems.
Belt Driven Live Roller Conveyor consistes of load rollers, a drive-belt, return rollers and an external motor. These rollers are moved using a belt which is located directly underneath the load rollers which provides friction directly on the rollers causing forward movement of the product. The return rollers are used to keep the belt in place under the conveyor and to maintain tension on the drive belt. This conveyor can be used in accumulation, induction and merging systems where product suzes and weights tend to vary.
Chain Driven Live Roller Conveyors are typically used to transport heavier loads at controlled speeds. Chains drive sprockets on the load rollers which in turn drive a chain and the sprocket on the next roller. These systems transmit the same amount of power to each roller thus insuring a smooth, even ride. These conveyors offer several advantages, for instance, because there are no belts, the chain driven conveyor can transport both hot and cold loads that could damage other conveyor types.
Accumulation Conveyors separate products on a conveyor line by halting and holding goods in place until the system signals its release to the next zone. This also keeps products from touching or running into each other to eliminate damage. Accumulation system conveyor is typically used in conjunction with other modular conveyor types in a complete conveyor handling system. This conveyor can be the most vital link in any large material handling conveyor system for product handling automation. Without it, your product flow, sortation system, packaging machine or other machines will quickly become overloaded and will not function properly.
Line Shaft Conveyors basic design utilizes live rollers that are driven by a urethane belt from a drive shaft under the roller bed that runs the length of the conveyor. This belt driven driveshaft is turned by a motor and transmits its rotation via small urethane belts to individual rollers, making it an excellent choice for both transporting and accumulating products on a production line. Since the rollers are individually powered, a line shaft conveyor can easily be used for accumulation operations where there is a minimum amount of back pressure on the product being transported.
Also known as a telescoping conveyor, this conveyor extends into the back of a trailer to load or unload packages with ease, providing a long term solution in the shipping and receiving areas. When loading or unloading is finished, the extendable conveyor simply telescopes back into itself and is ready for use with the next truck. These conveyors can either be fixed in place or move along the dock for easy access to any of the available doors (known as transversing.
More elaborate systems that require products to be delivered to different locations throughout the warehouse may still need some sort of sortation solution. No matter your needs, we’ve got you covered!

Horizontal crossbelt sorters can recirculate goods that have either not been recognized by identification technology or have not been discharged because all destinations were full.
The main feature of Interroll’s vertical crossbelt sorter with linear, straight routing (“above – below”) is its distinctive space-saving design because of its compact, modular approach. A minimum width of 1.7 m is already sufficient, e.g., for a vertical sorter with a crossbelt carriage measuring 400 x 400 mm. This configuration can also save valuable space, if full containers are transported into the sorter. This is unique on the market. The infeed on the vertical sorter usually starts with an accumulating conveyor in front of the actual sorter – a simple conveyor belt. Operators are able to manually feed goods directly onto this accumulating conveyor – a cost-effective and ergonomic solution. The accumulating conveyor can, of course, also be loaded via semi-automated or fully-automated infeeds.
