Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Typically handles light to medium loads, with individual wheel capacities commonly ranging from 10-30 kg.

Power supply

This is a non-driven unit; therefore, no external power supply is required for its operation.

Footprint (extended)

Extended lengths for this class of equipment commonly range from 2 to 10 metres, with widths typically between 400mm and 800mm.

Footprint (collapsed)

When collapsed, units of this type can reduce their length by approximately 3 to 4 times, optimising space.

Conveying surface

Features 48 wheel axles, providing a low-friction surface suitable for flat-bottomed items.

Construction material

Frames are typically constructed from steel or aluminium for durability, with plastic or steel wheels.

Adjustability

Commonly features adjustable height and the ability to bend to various radii for custom routing.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What types of items are best suited for a non-driven flexi conveyor?

  These conveyors are best suited for items with flat, rigid bottoms such as boxes, crates, and totes, which can roll easily over the wheels. Irregularly shaped or soft items may not convey effectively.
