Product Details:

Slat conveyors are a type of conveying technology that utilizes a chain-driven loop of slats to move product from one of its ends to another. The chain is driven by a motor, which causes it to cycle just as belt conveyors do. The main difference is that, instead of a rubber belt, this conveyor type uses slats connected to a chain, not dissimilar from vehicle treads. The result is a conveyor that provides a rigid, flat surface for every item on the conveyor, which is ideal for many kinds of products that cannot be used on rollers or belts due to their irregular shape. These slats are typically made of engineering plastic or metal, which allows slat conveyors to function in hazardous, high weight, and high-temperature environments. Another major advantage is that the slats can be built with unique shapes (such as in Figure 1), giving them more use-cases than most conveyors. They come in a range of speeds and widths and have optional side railings to guide materials through the conveyor system, if desired.
