Dorner FlexMove flexible chain conveyor

Dorner (dornerconveyors.com) FlexMove flexible chain conveyors, which allow for horizontal turns and elevation changes on a continuous run driven by a single gear motor, were introduced at PACK EXPO Las Vegas. The helix and spiral models feature continuous 360-deg turns for moving product up or down in a vertical space, while the Alpine version features long inclines or declines with tight turns. Wedge-design units convey product by gripping the sides.

The Dorner FlexMove conveyor platform and new AquaGard 7350 modular curve chain conveyor are on display in Booth C-1844.
