What can Intralox Conveyors do for your business?
Increase line speeds while decreasing cost per case
Allow greater line flexibility for managing packaging innovations
Up to 50% reduction in installation costs and downtime during retrofits
Up to 85% reduction in maintenance and related costs
Virtually eliminate line jams and slowdowns by eliminating dead zones
Prevent product damage with gentler product handling
Intralox Conveyors an alternative to roller conveyors
Roller Conveyor
Cannot easily handle multiple sizes or types of packaging. Requires time consuming line changeovers.Intralox Conveyor
Allows for conveyance of multiple package types and sizes on a single line.Roller Conveyor
Costly delays occur while manual labor clears jams caused by package slugs and dead zones.Intralox Conveyor
Cases maintain proper orientation and spacing to eliminate jams.Case damage
Roller Conveyor
Risk of breakage from rough conveyance and potential impact with other cases in dead zones.Intralox Conveyor
Smooth conveying surface and consistent spacing prevent case damage.Throughput
Roller Conveyor
Line stops caused by jams, dead zones and other errors negatively impact productivity.Intralox Conveyor
Continuously running conveyor provides steady throughput and decreases cost per case.Line speed
Roller Conveyor
Increases costs by requiring special equipment (welded frames, high speed bearings and rollers) to handle higher speeds.Intralox Conveyor
Can handle line speeds above 150 fpm (45.72 m/min) without any need to upgrade parts.Dead zones
Roller Conveyor
Rollers stop, causing dead zones that reduce productivity and cause jams downstream.Intralox Conveyor
Smooth belt surface moves continuously to maintain steady rate and throughput.Back pressure
Roller Conveyor
Zero pressure accumulation zonefailures lead to slugs of cases, resulting in jams and inaccurate case counts.Consistent low back pressure
Intralox Conveyor
accumulation provides for zero case damage. Restarting after accumulation offers consistent spacing of cases, eliminating jams.Cost
Roller Conveyor
Wear and tear requires frequent replacement or rebuilding of entire system.Intralox Conveyor
Longer belt life with virtually zero maintenance increases value over time. Costs when retrofitting are up to 50% less than installing new roller conveyor system.Belt Styles for Every Need
Accumulation
Maintains necessary low back pressure and eliminates case jams that cause line stops and production delays.
Transport/Straight Runs
Allows lines to run at faster speeds while cases maintain even spacing on belt and eliminates dead zones.
Inclines/Declines
Cases maintain position and spacing, minimizing slippage that results in product damage and jams downstream.
Radius Turns
Slugs and resulting line jams on curves are eliminated as cases maintain proper orientation and spacing.
Singulation
Increases throughput by as much as 5% by eliminating up to 99% of all side-by-side cases. Handles a wide variety of package types and sizes.
Sorting
Accurately sorts up to 120 packages per minute. Capable of sorting a broader range of product types than other technologies. Single or dualsided sorting design lends flexibility for using plant space. Divert zones can be more tightly spaced than other technologies to reduce footprint
Descrambling for Depalletizing
Eliminates or reduces case jams and other line stoppages. Reduces labor and equipment costs by as much as 20% when used on automated depalletizing systems. Smaller footprint than other descramblers saves floor space.
Center-Line Merging
Simple mechanism requires less maintenance than sliding shoes or herringbone rollers. Eliminates jams and risk of product damage from contact with guardrails or plows.
Horizontal Switching/Line Diverting
Reduces maintenance costs by 40-90% over 15 year life cycle compared to slat switches.
Handles higher rates with fewer jams than pusher arms switches. Line flexibility is increased compared to swing arm designs.
Case Turning Fewer drives and less moving parts simplify case turning mechanism. Zero problems caused by interruptions of momentum at case turner. Eliminates all downtime from jams or crooked cases.
General Alignment/Centering/Orientation
Requires minimal changeover between package types. Eliminates risk of product damage and line jams.
