297CDLR

Heavy Duty Chain Driven Roller Conveyor

The 297CDLR is a heavy duty conveyor tailored for transporting substantial loads such as palletized products, drums, or castings in environments where oil, dust, or contaminants may be present. It uses a chain driven live roller configuration with larger tread rollers and a structural frame that supports high load capacities.

Reversible drive options and enclosed chain guards enhance installation flexibility and protect internal components. The conveyor is engineered for torque and load carrying rather than high speeds, providing reliable propulsion under sustained heavy duty use.

Applications

  • Pallet handling lines
  • Drum conveying systems
  • 90° transfers onto or off of conveyor lines
  • Accumulation zones with controlled indexing
  • Dirty or oil-exposed operating areas
  • Specialty environments including washdown, freezer, and oven applications

Industries

  • Manufacturing and assembly operations
  • Distribution and fulfillment centers
  • Food and beverage processing
  • Packaging and material handling integrators
  • Automotive and heavy equipment manufacturing
