What Chain Conveyors Are Suitable For
- Heavy loads: loaded pallets, mesh boxes, load carriers, components with a high weight
- Small contact surfaces: Material that would tip over on rollers rests securely on the chain strands
- Harsh Environments: Even Oily, Hot, or Sharp-Edged Goods—The Chain Can Handle What Belts Can’t
- Cross-feed: In combination with lifting and rotating stations, the material changes direction and level without being transferred
Standardized where it saves costs—customized where it counts
The basic model, available in single-strand or multi-strand configurations, is a proven design and can be delivered quickly. The number of strands, pitch, drive, and frame are customized to suit your material and cycle time. We weld the steel frame in-house in accordance with EN 1090 EXC2, and our precision manufacturing department handles the machining of the components. This ensures short delivery times and verifiable quality.

Yes—we'll design it to fit your existing track in terms of dimensions and control systems, including transfer points to lifting stations, turning stations, or third-party conveyors.
Low maintenance—that’s one of its major advantages: robust construction, few wear points, and easy access. We supply replacement parts from our own production facilities.
Both: individual conveyors to fill a gap in your line, as well as complete lines involving multiple trades.
