Vertical & space-saving
Alpine conveyors
Also known as accumulators — they buffer products on your line while keeping everything moving smoothly.
An alpine conveyor on our build floor — straight runs that fold back on themselves level by level, so product banks up in the air instead of across your floor.
The principle
Our alpine conveyors work by allowing products to accumulate, providing time on the downstream end of a process line for slower processes — preventing manufacturing errors and backups.
Alpine conveyors do this automatically, so you won't have to worry about backups. Because they can handle more than one row of products, they decrease their footprint on your factory floor.
They can also be customized for nearly any purpose or product.
Where alpines earn their keep
Buffer capacity without buying floor space.
When a downstream machine stops for a reel change, a label roll or a routine fault, the upstream process does not have to stop with it. The alpine absorbs the difference.
Combined with spirals and grip conveyors, an alpine gives you a continuous, automatic flow of traffic control in the vertical plane rather than the horizontal.
