Lineshaft Conveyors represent a unique concept in powered conveyors. They
have the capability of accumulating products with minimum back pressure. Typical
characteristics include quiet operation and easy maintenance. Omni lineshaft
conveyors are available in many configurations, with options that include diverters,
spurs, urethane belt transfers, spring assisted gates, blade stops, and roller brakes. |

Lineshaft
Conveyors are powered by a drive shaft that spans the full length of the conveyor
and transmits power to the rollers via a drive spool and belt. When back pressure is
applied to the conveyed product, the spools driving the rollers will slip on the shaft
allowing the product to accumulate with a minimum amount of back pressure.
Applications include transportation, minimum pressure accumulation, zero pressure
accumulation, and sortation. |
