Solutions for Transporting Small to Large Containers
Cartons sail through the warehouse on their way to their intended destination. Filled drums leave the production line and are automatically transferred to a pallet. This is all made possible by container conveyor systems, which transport individual containers between various stages of the logistics chain.
Applications for Container Conveyor Systems
SMB's container conveyor technology efficiently moves different types of containers—such as cartons, trays, or drums—through warehouses or production lines.
Our conveyor solutions can handle everything from small, lightweight containers to large heavy-duty containers. These systems not only transport but can also sort, buffer, accumulate and load or unload containers. As such, container conveyor systems are the perfect addition to filling systems, automated storage solutions, and palletizers.
When these systems are combined, they can increase the overall degree of automation of the logistics chain. All processes, from the provisioning of raw materials through production, packaging, and storage, can be fully automated.
Many industries rely on container conveyors to automate frequent paths in their facilities. This could include transporting packaged food products like flour, confectionery or dairy products in cartons. Container conveyors move these items at high speeds, which keeps the rest of the intralogistics operations running smoothly. Our conveyor systems can also handle different kinds of containers, which makes them an attractive option for the pharmaceutical and e-commerce industries.
