Indexing Conveyor

For many years Nerak continuous vertical platform conveyors have been the classic choice when it came to conveying large quantities of unit loads between floors.

A call for the vertical indexing conveyor now exists. These units are not only capable of transferring products through multiple floors but they can also act as buffer storage units.

The specially designed machines convey items such as trays and totes with individual loads of up to 50kg. Lifting heights of over 20 mtrs are achievable combined with throughputs of 750 units / hour.

The product is fed onto angled ledges attached to two pairs of synchronized belts by either a horizontal conveyor or a pneumatic ‘pusher’. At the out-feed point a pneumatic pusher discharges the load onto a horizontal conveyor.
