Flex Conveyor
Expand flex conveyor to efficiently move inventory where you need it, extending it for use and collapsing it for compact storage when not in use.
Flexible Conveyors
Flexible conveyors expand to fit your warehouse product transportation needs, then compact down when not in use to save space. They are powered by either a motor (flexible power conveyor) or gravity (flexible gravity conveyor). Both types of flex conveyor systems feature compact storage and easy transportation, and are used for loading and unloading trucks and/or multiple docks. But if you are looking for a solution to allow smooth bottomed containers to glide down the conveyor, flexible gravity conveyors are the way to go, as they feature several wheels attached to axles to allow this. Here are some other key differences between power and gravity conveyors:
Flex Power Conveyors vs Flex Gravity Conveyors
Powered Flex benefits
- No need to manually push cartons along conveyor
- Cartons convey smoothly around curves and bends
- No incline/decline required to convey cartons from one end to the other
Gravity Flex benefits
- Lower purchase price compared to powered
- Lower maintenance cost
- Can be positioned where needed with no regard for power
- Available in longer extended lengths than powered
FAQs
Flex conveyor offers several key benefits that make it a versatile material handling solution. These units are completely mobile, mounted on casters so they can be easily rolled into the back of a semi-truck for loading or unloading, or repositioned in an order fulfillment area for packaging operations. Flex conveyors are also expandable and collapsible, extending during use and collapsing to roughly half their expanded length or less for convenient storage. In addition, they are available in a wide range of widths and lengths to fit your application and can be configured with either gravity or powered rollers to match your operational needs.
A. The width of most flex conveyor generally ranges from 18” to 30” and the expanded lengths usually range from 12’ to 60’ depending on the application.
