overview
A slat conveyor utilizes one or more continuous chains with attached slats that are spaced without overlapping or interlocking. Typically operating at slow speeds and in a horizontal direction, it's designed to transport items that cannot be easily moved on rollers or belts due to their shape or condition. Slat conveyor systems are also employed to move items through assembly processes while in motion. These conveyors can be installed on the floor or in a pit that can be made flush to the floor.
how it works
Slat conveyor systems are an efficient and cost-effective method for transporting unit loads unsuitable for rollers or belts. They excel in scenarios requiring the movement of heavy items without flat bottoms, such as automobile seats or unboxed furniture, and in situations where conventional belts could be damaged by impact or abrasion during loading or unloading. Additionally, slat conveyors are adept at handling loads that are dirty, oily, or wet, which might contaminate or harm other conveyor types. They are particularly useful for tasks involving continuous assembly on the move, allowing for the secure attachment of fixtures to the slats for stable processing. This capability makes slat conveyors perfect for assembling complex items like automobile seats, drive train parts, etc.
