Flexible roller conveyors, vehicle loading and unloading systems.

Our aim is to bring cost effective and reliable products to the market for loading and unloading vans,trucks and containers.



There are different levels of vehicle loading and unloading conveyor equipment build quality and price, depending on what you are conveying and how often. Two conveyors that look the same on the surface can perform very differently once in use. The conveyor recommended loads and your working conditions are very important. If you use the conveyors periodically for light loads that's a different proposition to a 24hr parcels depot with incoming and outgoing traffic constantly needing to transfer boxes of often quite heavy weight and a variety of lengths. Get the calculations wrong on this aspect and you will be buying another conveyor sooner than you would like.

We can help you make the right choice for your business.

The expanding roller and skatewheel conveyors are very flexible these days and have attachments such as connector plates and end stops that can be removed or repositioned if required as shown above.

  

Above are 3 similar conveyors but they are different for different jobs. Gravity rollers can transport most objects easiy and the adjustable stands and use of connecting plates and end stops make these conveyors very popular. The centre conveyor is a skatewheel version of the same, with a lower weight capacity these conveyors are preferred where the product might not have a totally flat bottom. The option on the right is motor powered and can be plugged in and ready to go in seconds.



When loading and unloading vehicles, you can save time by combining the expanding conveyor with a vehicle loading belt conveyor, which can be reversed for loadign and unloading. This whole setup is completely mobile and naturally the expanding conveyor contracts or expands depending how far along the loading or unloading process you are.

This low cost loading and unloading system has a high grip belt and hydraulic lift to adjust the angle of incline. For lower volume cases where the usage is more sporadic and the boxes not too heavy.
