Ball Transfer Tables
Gravity Wheel Conveyor:
This conveyor has wheels which
rotate independently, allowing excellent tracking of packages. Item to be
transported on this conveyor should have smooth, firm bottom surfaces to
ensure satisfactory operation. Items may be manually pushed along this
conveyor or the conveyor may be inclined to allow the force of gravity to
move the items.
Gravity Roller Conveyor:
This conveyor offers good
support for the bottom surfaces of the items to be transported. Therefore,
those with irregular surfaces, such as drums or older cartons and boxes, or
items too loosely bagged to transport well on gravity wheel conveyors, can
all be transported on the gravity roller conveyor. These items will move
smoothly as long as the bottom surface of the item does not conform to the
shape of the rollers. Items may be manually pushed along this conveyor or
the conveyor may be inclined to allow the force of gravity to move the
items.
Ball Transfer Tables:
Ball Transfer Tables are
extremely useful where the orientation of packages must be manually
transferred. The omni-directional features of Metzgar ball units provide
economical solutions to even the most difficult motion problems. Transfers,
inspection stations and packing stations are some common applications for
ball transfer tables. It is important that the item on the ball table has a
smooth, firm bottom surface.
We also offer a full line of
curves, stands, gates, supports and other accessories for Metzgar
gravity conveyor models.
