Types of Industrial Conveyors
The selection of the type of conveyor most suitable for your business it will depend on the products you need to transport and the choice is directly related to the weight, size and speed of transport, among others …
Next we present the different types of industrial conveyors, for transport by gravity, chain, belt or motorized rollers … that we design and manufacture in Codimar.
Transportadores de Gravedad
Gravity Transporters Gravity Transporters are particularly suitable for cases in which the product does not need a propulsion mechanism to move it, and the product can be moved by the force of the packages that precede it or due to the inclination of certain section of the transport line.
They are characterized mainly because The rollers used in the application are based on light bearings or heads with rows of balls, that make the starting effort of the roller very low.
Based on the needs, gravity conveyors can be different types:
Gravity Spiral
Bend Pulley
Ball Table
Slides
Roller Curve
Heavy Series Roller Rail
Motorised Roller Conveyors
The Motorized Roller Conveyors They are a good solution for the transport of merchandise of a very different nature and that due to the demand of the transport chain, it is necessary that the packages move at a more or less constant speed.
Mainly There are two types: Roller-based driven by roller-to-roller chain loops (with double pinion rollers), or tangential conveyors , which are provided with a chain along the conveyor that drives each of the rollers (generally with single pinion rollers).
Some of the models we manufacture are:
Light Series Chain Loop Motorized Roller Conveyors
Belt Conveyors on Roller Cradle
Tangential belt motorized roller conveyor
Motorized Tapered Roller Bend
Motorised Trident
Chain Conveyors
The Chain Conveyors Chain Conveyors consist of two or more feeders that carry a generally large chain on which the load (normally on pallets or special boxes) rests. Mainly used for the transport of very heavy loads, of large dimensions or that are subjected to high temperatures, they are characterized by having a very high quality/durability ratio, which requires minimal maintenance. At Rodillos Codimar we are specialists in the manufacture of Chain conveyors for the automotive sector, among others. There are also other chain conveyors which do not have supporting feeders, but are based on a metal slat band chain. They are especially suitable for cases in which the packages are of different weights and measures. They are characterized by having a very high quality / durability ratio and with minimal maintenance. At Rodillos Codimar we are specialists in the manufacture of Chain conveyors for the automotive sector … among others.
Also exist other chain conveyors but not of supporting branches, but based on a metal slat band chain. They are indicated above all in those cases in which the need for transport is uneven and the packages are of different weights and measures.
Some of the models that we manufacture at Codimar are:
Double Chain Conveyors
Triple Chain Conveyors
Four Chain Conveyors
Clapboard Conveyors
Accumulation Chain Conveyors
Belt Conveyors
The Belt Conveyors in which the product is transported, supported on a conveyor belt. These transporters They can be made with rubber bands, PVC or even metal mesh. They consist of a driving head in which the driven drum is incorporated and another tensioning head which is made up of a return drum with which we can generally proceed to align the belt in its movement. Depending on the product to be transported, these conveyors can be built with a sheet metal cradle or a roller cradle, which in turn can be straight or in a trough of varying inclination.
Is or one of the most used industrial conveyors for the transport of small packaged products that cannot be transported with other types of conveyors, such as roller conveyors. t Rodillos Codimar we specialise in the manufacture of Belt Conveyors for the agri-food industry, movement of packages inside and outside warehouses and in general, for any application in the industry.
Some of the models we manufacture are:
Belt conveyors on sheet metal cradle
Runner Belt Conveyors on Sheet Metal Cradle
Belt Conveyor on Roller Cradle
Z Belt Elevator
Modular or Metallic Mesh and Hinge Conveyors
The Modular Mesh, Metal and Hinge Conveyors allows the change in the direction of the transport flow, in addition to the drainage of liquids therefore, one of its main characteristics is that they can be easily cleaned. At Rodillos Codimar we specialise in the manufacture of Modular and Metallic Mesh Conveyors and Hinge Conveyors for the food industry, transportation of heavy loads…
Some of the models we manufacture are:
Modular Mesh Conveyor
Hinge Conveyor
Metal Mesh Conveyor
Cardan Chain Conveyor
