Roller Conveyors
– with chain drive for heavy duty

Type RCH – for transport with high load and large dimensions

Roller conveyors are often used for pallet transport with pallet conveyed in the longitude direction. The conveyor design is standardized and modelized to meet the maximum and minimum product(pallet) size and weight.

The roller diameter and pitch are selected from our standard model range together with the robust steel frame, supports and motor-frame.

The rollers are equipped with double chain wheels in one end and are driven by looped chain from roller to roller. The drive system is covered by a closed steel guard protecting it from dust and particles.

The complete steel frame is designed for heavy duty application, long lifetime, and minimum maintenance.

Knowledge and service

Whether you’re looking for a material handling system, advanced conveyor system or robotic palletizing.

Our experienced design team analyses your application, existing and new conditions through site visits, product mix analysis, de-bottlenecking, and tailer-make a solution well suited for your new or existing production line.

When you require a higher capacity, a different product mix or a leaner production flow, we can develop the solution(s) in 3D layout for easy review of all details, interfaces, check of footprint and scope of supply.

The layout can easily be shared with end-users, operators, and specialists for exchange of experience, developing the optimum long-lasting solution.

Most projects have several possible solutions, and it is important to align the projects to meet the financial budget, designing the most cost-effective solution.

When creating projects in several steps, we always keep your end configuration in mind, this guarantee major equipment is placed correct the first time, ensuring good accessibility at the end stage.

Meeting your specification and requirement is our main objective – capacity, startup on time and meeting the budget are the key factors.

The capacity of a new or upgraded automatic system shall be met, and critical parts of the layout is simulated, using Visual Components software together with the CH designed conveyors, machines, gantry robots or Kuka industrial robots & AGV’s.

Product traceability is secured using the latest technology including 2.D barcodes, RFID tags, etc. Using Industry 4.0 technologies, we strive to build and design the most intelligent production line for your future factory.
