Conveyors are an integral part of warehouse
operations. They contribute in important ways to
productivity and efficiency, as well as quality
control and personnel safety.
3
The type of conveyor used in a specific
application depends on many factors, including
the size and weight of the product to be moved,
whether the conveying is done on one level or
from one level to another and many other
considerations.
4
Conveyors, like other material handling
equipment, have to be matched to their function.
But cost remains a concern, as well. Certainly,
one conveyor can't replace another just because
it's less expensive. There are ways to keep costs
under control. One way to control costs is to
look for used conveyors that can meet
specifications.
5
Look for used equipment from large companies that
are moving, downsizing or updating their
warehouse operations. Reconditioned equipment can
be an excellent investment. Conveyors fall into
four basic classes gravity, power, flexible and
lifts/carousels. With gravity conveyor, products
are shift by gravity or pushed.
6
A motor does the moving with a power conveyor.
Flexible conveyors are just that They can be
either gravity- or motor-driven, depending on the
application. Lifts and carousels move products
vertically or horizontally for order picking.
7
Conveyors that fit into two of these categories -
gravity and power - are described here.
Representative of gravity conveyors are the
gravity roller conveyor and the skatewheel
conveyor.
8
The skatewheel conveyor is a series of small
steel wheels and can handle items that are wider
than it is. The roller conveyor is for heavy,
uneven and open packaged products and usually
features spring-loaded axles.
9
Power conveyors include the live roller, incline,
accumulating, chain-driven, sortation and pallet.
Live roller conveyors are powered by belts or
o-rings and come in a variety of section shapes.
Incline conveyors can move products form one
level to the next.
10
Accumulating conveyors gather and hold material
in place to wait for action down the line.
Chain-driven conveyors can carry the heaviest
palletized loads and drums. Sortation conveyors
allow merging, separate and divert products in
multiple directions.
11
Pallet conveyors transport, stop, accumulate or
stage palletized loads and are ideal for
conveying heavy items. Deciding which kind of
conveyor system will best meet a specific need
can be a challenge, and the first choice might
not be the best.
12
It can be a good idea to take advantage of the
design capabilities of some warehouse equipment
dealers. A well-designed material handling system
can result in lower costs because more efficient
conveyors can be used or because a less expensive
conveyor will do the job just as well.
