Belt conveyor
For polybags, small items and inclines; telescopic versions reach into the truck for loading and unloading.
For polybags, small items and inclines; telescopic versions reach into the truck for loading and unloading.
Belt conveyors handle what rollers do not: polybags, small items, loads with uneven bottoms, and sections that climb or descend. Common forms are flat belts, incline belts, telescopic boom conveyors and sorter induction belts. A telescopic belt extends into the trailer at the dock, so the crew only lifts cartons inside the vehicle, which raises dock throughput and reduces strain.
Typical uses
- Truck unloading, loading and inclines in parcel hubs
- Polybags and small items in e-commerce warehouses
- Acceleration and induction sections ahead of a sorter
- Continuous inclines between floor levels
