Chain Conveyors & Washdown Pallet Handling

Heavy-Duty & Pallet Systems

Purpose-built for the heaviest loads on the line — full pallets, bulk containers, and end-of-line transport in full washdown environments.

Heavy-load and pallet transport in sanitary environments.

Chain Conveyors

Stainless steel chain on stainless steel frame with high load capacity for full pallets, heavy cases, or bulk containers. Available in single-strand, dual-strand, and multi-strand configurations. Compatible with pallet dispensers, stretch wrappers, and strapping systems.

Construction Standards

Built Different. On Purpose.

Heavy-duty and pallet systems share the same sanitary construction standards — built to handle the heaviest loads on the line while maintaining full washdown capability.

Power Options

Heavy-duty systems use chain-driven and gear motor configurations designed for maximum load capacity and reliability.

Standard Gear Motor Drives

Stainless steel washdown-rated gear motors with proven reliability for constant-speed transport. VFD-compatible for adjustable speed control.
