Belt conveyors
Simple transport for cartons, cases and stable packs.
Conveyors & Handling for Industrial Packaging Applications
Belt, modular and slat conveyors, turntables and unscramblers that connect the line.
Conveyors and handling equipment move containers between machines and feed them in the right orientation and spacing. Poor transfers are a common cause of falls, jams and lost output, so they deserve the same attention as the main machines.
Types and configurations
Common approaches in this category. The right one depends on your product, pack and output.
Modular conveyors
Plastic modular belts for curves, transfers and washdown areas.
Slat conveyors
Stainless or plastic slat chains for bottles and jars.
Turntables
Accumulate and feed containers at the start or end of a line.
Unscramblers
Orient and feed empty bottles automatically.
How to choose
| Selection factor | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Transfer stability | Light, tall or narrow containers need careful guide rails and transfer design. |
| Line speed | Conveyor speed and accumulation should match the slowest and fastest machines. |
| Cleaning | Washdown, food or pharma areas need suitable materials and open design. |
| Guarding | Pinch points and transfers need safety guarding. |
Where it fits in a packaging line
A typical sequence. Your actual line depends on product and pack.
- Unscrambler
- Conveyor
- Process machines
- Accumulation table
- Case packing
Technical specifications such as output, accuracy and dimensions are configuration dependent. They are confirmed against the supplier datasheet for each enquiry.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a bottle unscrambler?
If operators place bottles on the line by hand and that limits speed or causes errors, an unscrambler or turntable can help. The bottle shape decides which type works.
What causes bottles to fall at transfers?
Speed differences, gaps between conveyors, guide rail settings and container stability are the usual causes.
Can existing conveyors be reused?
Sometimes. Height, width, speed control and condition need checking against the new machines.
