SOCO Transfer units
The transfer unit changes the pallet direction travel by 90°. The 90° transfer unit is a chain conveyor which is raised and lowered automatically above and below roller height.
Can be fitted in all pallet roller conveyors where the height exceeds 350 mm.
Motors:
Two motors – one for up/down movement and one for chain movement.
SOCO Transfer units
Overview
SOCO Transfer Units are designed to facilitate the efficient and automated transfer of pallets between different conveyor lines. These units are particularly useful for changing the direction of pallet travel by 90°, making them an essential component in complex material handling systems.
Key Features
- 90° Transfer Capability: Changes the direction of pallet travel by 90°, optimising the flow of materials in a production or warehouse setting.
- Automatic Operation: The chain conveyor is raised and lowered automatically above and below roller height, ensuring seamless integration with existing conveyor systems.
