Adjustable lateral guide/lane adjustment
Since packaging sizes, containers, and bottle designs are more variable than ever today, lanes in conveyor technology must also be highly flexible. It is important to have the simplest, most modular implementation of adjustment tasks. With a wide range of linear axes, from systems with a hand wheel to fully automated concepts using actuators and control systems, we offer every solution for easy lateral guide adjustment.More about lane adjustment products

Seven tips for selecting the optimum conveyor rollers
In selecting guide rollers, it helps to pay attention to detail and, depending on the application, to take a look at solutions that go beyond the standard. This applies to such items as materials (components do not always have to be metal) and the options 3D printing offers. This white paper contains tips to help conveyor system design engineers find the ideal guide roller for their application.

Conveyor belt bearing support
In goods feeding or other internal goods traffic, conveyor belt function must always be flawless. Product selection at conveyor belt bearing points helps ensure that it is. Even in continuous operation and when there is heavy contamination, bearing point operation should require as little maintenance as possible and be absolutely reliable.More about conveyor belt bearing products

Fixed plates
Products can wear quickly within the conveyor technology at fixed plates and on lane walls. To avoid scratches on beverage bottles and premature wear on cartons, surfaces must buffer and have as little friction as possible. Product and container service life can be extended with tribo-tape liners or bar stock plates made of friction-optimised iglidur materials.Find out more about tribo-tape liners
