For over thirty years, we have been industry leaders in the design, manufacturing, installation and service of overhead conveyors. We produce high quality material handling solutions for a very wide range of conveyor applications. From initial concept to final setup, and have installed over a million feet of conveyors in over 30 countries since our inception. Our aim is to go above and beyond to ensure your satisfaction and guarantee benefits for your business.

2. • 4 varieties available; PAC-Line
C-250 enclosed track
synchronous, PAC-Max HD
enclosed track synchronous,
3”/ 4”/ 6” PAC-Beam
synchronous, Power and Free
enclosed track non-
synchronous.
• Each applied according to load
and function.

3. • C-250 model is used in Empty
Carton installations.
• Synchronous operation-
continuous or indexing.
• Medium capacity of 50 lb. per
hanging point, up to 200 lb. per
load bar setup and maximum of
500 lb. per 10’ section.
• Normally “slot down”, can be
inverted in certain situations.

4. • Feature; Enclosed track protects
bearings and chain components
from contamination.
• Feature; Bolted design allows for
faster installation without welding.
• Feature; All components are zinc
plated to improve appearance,
durability and resistance to rusting.

5. • Feature; Compact components
include 9” radius horizontal curves
and up, 18” radius vertical curves
and up, 3’-0” long drives either 9” or
19” wide.
• Feature; Curves are case hardened,
and 6”/ 7.5”/ 9” sprocket turns are
now available.
• Feature; Dust/ drip trays available.
• Speeds of 1 FPM to 60 FPM (max.
suggested 40 FPM for warehouse
applications).

6. • Delivering empty cartons or
totes to pick areas
• Delivering empty cartons and
totes to packers
• Tote recycling (wash and return)
• Trash removal from picking or
packing areas
• Combination of each of above

7. Hooks
• Must be easy to load and unload
carton or totes
• Varying carton sizes may be
problematic
Trays
• Allows constant clearance
beneath carrier
• Can be hazardous due to size and
weight
Dumping Systems
• Trays or hooks

8. Typical picking area arrangements
• Over triple-wide conveyors
• Over “put to light ranges”
Typical packing area arrangements
• Over packing tables
• Opposite/ over sortation chutes
Typical combo system arrangements
• Over takeaway conveyors or
triple-wide conveyors

9. • Max. practical operating speed; 40 FPM.
• Min. practical carrier spacing; 3’-6” c-c.
• Max. practical # cartons/ totes per
hook; 2 cartons, 1-2 tote box(es).
• Maximum throughput is therefore 22
CPM, and 11 totes/ min. per conveyor.
• Use multiple conveyors if greater rates
are required. Split long conveyors into
2 or 3 individual units. Route all to the
carton building area.

10. • 40 FPM speed for safety and bearing
longevity.
• Place take-ups as close as possible
to and downstream of drives,
preferably after a decline.
• Ergonomically sensible loading/
unloading elevations.
• On multiple drive systems, locate
the drives for equal pull.
• Safety guarding for all areas above
7’-0” to underside of carton.
• Integrate with roller conveyor E-stop
control.

11. • Roller conveyor gate access should
be considered; allocate more
headroom or leave spaces between
carriers and use stop interlock.
• Use variable speed drive to allow for
soft starting, fine tuning of speed,
remote signal features.
• Possibility of oil drips on product
can be minimized by using drip trays
on conveyor or built into carrier.

12. “Per foot” budgeting
• Over 1,000’ $80- $120
installed
Influencing factors:
• Conveyor height/ ceiling height
• Use of mobile lifts vs. ladders/
scaffolds
• Amount of safety guarding and
guarding styles
• Carrier type/ spacing
• Union/ non-union

• Barnes and Noble; 18,000 ft.
• Ross Stores; 9,000 ft.
• Gap; 9,300 ft.
• Footlocker/ KS; 3,000 ft.
• Amscan/ NY; 5,670 ft.
• Family dollar; 11,000 ft.
• American Eagle; 6,500 ft.
• Amazon/ Zappos; 1,200 ft.
• Urban Outfitters; 2,200 ft.
