The CT360 90° 3-Strand Chain Transfer uses three parallel strands of flat side bar chain to move heavy unit loads at right angles between conveyor runs. Chain transfers are selected for applications where rigid pallets, crates, or other heavy packaged goods must be redirected in tight layouts that do not allow large radius turns. Each chain strand is supported by a formed transfer arm and driven by a gear motor to supply consistent motion for heavy duty handling.
Pneumatic components such as air bags and solenoid valves control the lift of the chain strands above the conveyor surface, enabling the transfer action. The design accommodates optional center drives for reversible operation and is supported by heavy bearings and robust construction to withstand continuous industrial use.
Applications
- Right angle transfers between parallel conveyor runs
- Product routing to multiple downstream lines
- Pallet turning or reorientation within a conveyor cell
- Carton diverting in accumulation or sortation areas
- Controlled transfers in limited floor space layouts
Industries
- Manufacturing and assembly operations
- Distribution and fulfillment centers
- Packaging and converting facilities
- Food and beverage processing
- Consumer goods and industrial products handling
