Creform Material Handling System is offered with roller conveyor sections that incorporate roller tracks with steel side C-frames and aluminum rollers with plastic roller bearings. Able to support up to 50 lb/ft, roller tracks are available in 6, 9, 12, and 15 in. widths and any length, with roller-to-roller centerlines of 1, 2, 3 and 4 in. Left and right mounting brackets, TX-0060L and TX-0060R, are made of heavy-duty stamped steel for attaching conveyor modules to 28 mm pipes.

********************

Creform[R] Corporation continues to expand the application possibilities for its Creform System of material handling structures with the introduction of two new, interrelated components. The new items include high-strength, lightweight roller conveyor sections, and left and right mounting brackets for attaching the conveyor modules to Creform's 28mm pipes.

Typical uses for the economical roller conveyors are in flow racks, work stations and storage racks/shelving, where the full width support offered by roller-style is best suited, as opposed to concentrated loading of 'skatewheel' type conveyors. Applications best handled by roller conveyors include soft-bottomed containers such as corrugated boxes, plastic totes with irregular shaped bottoms, and for situations where various sizes of containers are handled. The use of roller sections can also be extended to the handling of non-containerized products such as the one-piece-flow of manufactured items.

The roller tracks feature steel side C-frames for rigidity and strength, while the rollers are lightweight aluminum along with plastic, low-resistance roller bearings. The rollers are assembled with a through axle and have been given a low-profile design to minimize interference and save vertical space. The roller tracks are available in width options of 6, 9, 12, and 15" and roller-to-roller centerlines of 1, 2, 3 and 4" . The tracks can be ordered-to-length to fit the applicable structure's dimensions and offer support strengths of up to 50 pounds per foot.

The new mounting brackets, designated TX-0060L and TX-0060R, are heavy-duty stamped steel and plated to match other Creform hardware components and accessories. When mounting roller track sections to structures, the side frame of the track slides into the one end of the appropriate mount, either left hand or right hand, while the other end of the bracket snaps over the pipe...no tools or modifications to the pipe are required.
