Chain Transfer Capabilities
IK, as a pop up chain transfer conveyor manufacturer, has pre-engineered transfers for empty pallets or loaded pallets. Full pallet design capacity is 4,000 pounds, but can be modified to meet the application.
For full pallet transfers the lift mechanism incorporated is a wedge lift driven by an air cylinder. This arrangement provides very controlled vertical travel with a solid stable base in both the raised and lowered position.
Empty pallet transfers often used air mounts with a guide mechanism to provide the vertical lift.
Pop up roller transfers or chain transfer are available. Deciding on which transfer to incorporate into the system largely depends on the overall system design and arrangement. One advantage to the pop-up roller transfer is that loads can be conveyed with continuous chain support across a roller conveyor chainbox.
