Stable Conveying on a Continuous Surface
When products need uniform support throughout their route, chain conveying helps keep packages stable during movement, stops and transfers between successive machines.
Unlike roller conveyors, the continuous surface supports the entire product base. This allows bags, trays, cartons, small containers, lightweight packages and items with irregular or insufficiently rigid bases to be handled effectively.
The continuous conveying surface reduces the risk of rocking, snagging and misalignment, especially at transfer points to inspection, coding, packaging or case packing stations.
Chain Configuration and Line Integration
Product weight, dimensions, base characteristics, speed and environmental conditions guide belt selection and conveyor configuration. Belt material and finish affect product grip and wear resistance. Options include smooth, textured or high-grip surfaces, as well as versions suited to wet environments or processes with specific hygiene requirements.
Sensors and PLC logic control product presence, stopping and spacing, coordinating the belt with upstream and downstream equipment.
Let’s Design Chain Conveying Around Your Line
SAIEM designs and manufactures custom chain conveyors, defining dimensions, conveying surface, guides, structure and control systems around the product characteristics and required route.
To assess integration into an existing installation or a new line, SAIEM considers product dimensions, base type, throughput and available space. These details establish the required width, belt type, speed and interfaces with adjacent equipment.
