Conveyors

Production of conveyors

‍

In the world of modern industry, the ability to quickly and qualitatively adapt to changing market demands and production needs is crucial. That’s why we offer a complete range of services – from concept, design, production to transport and installation. We can manufacture various types of conveyors for you – belt, screw, chain, roller.

‍Belt conveyors

‍

Belt conveyors are the most common type of conveyors used in industrial plants. They consist of an endless belt that is driven by motors and pulleys. This belt can be made from a variety of materials, including rubber, plastic, textile or metal, and is suitable for transporting a wide range of materials, from bulk products to packaged goods. Belt conveyors are flexible and can cover long distances, including variable gradient routes. They are ideal for continuous operation and have low running costs, but maintenance can be more challenging, especially when it comes to replacing worn belts.

‍Screw conveyors

‍

Screw conveyors consist of a rotating screw inside a pipe or channel that drives the material forward. This type of conveyor is particularly suitable for transporting bulk materials such as grain, flour, cement or sawdust. Screw conveyors are capable of precise material dispensing and are suitable for both horizontal and vertical conveying. However, the disadvantage is their limited capacity and higher energy consumption. They are also prone to wear, especially when used to transport abrasive materials.

‍Chain conveyors

‍

Chain conveyors use a chain as its drive to move pallets, containers or other transport units. This type of conveyor is robust and is designed for heavy-duty operations where large and heavy items such as automotive parts, pallets or metal components. Chain conveyors are highly durable and long lasting, but can be noisier and require regular maintenance to prevent wear on the chain and pulleys.

‍Roller conveyors

‍

Roller conveyors consist of a series of rollers that are placed in a frame and rotate to propel objects forward. Roller conveyors can be powered or free-running, where the movement of material depends on gravity or manual feed. This type of conveyor is quite well suited to handling solid and regular objects such as boxes, crates or suitcases. They are simple to install and maintain, but are not suitable for loose materials or irregularly shaped objects.

Comparison of conveyor types

‍

Flexibility and route length

Belt conveyors are best suited for long distances and can be flexibly adapted to different routes. In contrast, screw conveyors are limited to shorter distances and specific applications, while chain and roller conveyors are more suited to fixed routes within production lines.

‍

Type of conveyed material

Belt conveyors are versatile and can transport a wide range of materials. Screw conveyors are specialized for bulk materials. Chain conveyors are ideal for heavy and robust loads, while roller conveyors are suitable for solid and regular items.

‍

Maintenance and operating costs

Belt and chain conveyors require regular maintenance due to wear and tear on the belts and chains, so this will increase their operating costs. Screw conveyors have higher energy consumption, which can be a disadvantage in energy-intensive operations. Roller conveyors are less maintenance intensive.

‍

Durability and durability

Chain conveyors stand out for their robustness and long service life, but are noisier. Belt conveyors are durable, but can be susceptible to wear and tear in harsh environments. Screw conveyors are more susceptible to wear when transporting abrasive materials, while roller conveyors generally have a long service life due to their simple design.
