In the age of Industry 4.0, where speed, accuracy, and efficiency define success in manufacturing and logistics, conveyor systems are playing a pivotal role. These mechanical marvels are the silent workhorses behind streamlined operations, from moving materials across production floors to handling delicate components in precision-driven industries.
At Kronexa Technologies, we specialize in designing and delivering conveyor systems that not only optimize workflows but also align with your automation goals—no matter the industry.
Why Conveyor Systems Are Essential to Modern Industry
Conveyor systems reduce manual labor, improve throughput, minimize errors, and lower operational costs. Their role in industrial automation is more than just moving materials—they are the backbone of smart manufacturing ecosystems.
Whether you’re in pharmaceuticals, FMCG, packaging, automotive, or electronics, a well-designed conveyor system can offer:
-
Consistent product flow
-
Increased safety
-
Faster cycle times
-
Higher scalability
-
Data-enabled integration with automation systems
Types of Conveyor Systems Used in Automation
Choosing the right conveyor depends on the nature of your product, the required speed, layout of your facility, and the degree of automation needed. Below are the most commonly used types:
1. Belt Conveyors
Use Case: Ideal for transporting materials over long distances or across varying elevations.
Key Features:
-
Continuous belt loop
-
Smooth transport of packaged goods, boxes, or granular materials
-
Used in packaging, food processing, assembly lines
Belt conveyors are one of the most common types due to their simplicity and flexibility. At Kronexa, we offer both flat belt and inclined belt conveyors for diverse applications.
2. Roller Conveyors
Use Case: Perfect for moving heavy items such as cartons, pallets, or industrial components.
Key Features:
-
Can be gravity-powered or motorized
-
Ideal for warehouse and distribution centers
-
Easy to integrate with sensors for automated sorting
Roller conveyors are a cost-effective solution that allows products to move freely or with controlled motorization.
3. Chain Conveyors
Use Case: Suitable for transporting bulky or hot items like metal components or molds.
Key Features:
-
Driven by chain links
-
High load-bearing capacity
-
Resistant to high temperatures and harsh environments
Chain conveyors are widely used in industries like automobile assembly, foundries, and heavy machinery manufacturing.
4. Slat Conveyors
Use Case: Designed for assembly lines requiring stability and indexing during operations.
Key Features:
-
Stainless steel or plastic slats
-
Stable base for complex products
-
Compatible with robotic arms and automated tools
These are commonly seen in automotive and appliance manufacturing, where workstations are integrated along the conveyor line.
5. Screw Conveyors
Use Case: For transporting powders or semi-solid materials in a sealed, controlled manner.
Key Features:
-
Rotating helical screw blade inside a tube
-
Used for ash, grains, waste, and viscous materials
-
Airtight and compact
Kronexa supplies both vertical and horizontal screw conveyors for specialized industries like agriculture, cement, and food processing.
6. Modular Plastic Belt Conveyors
Use Case: Ideal for wet environments or curved layouts.
Key Features:
-
Interlocking plastic segments
-
Easy to clean and maintain
-
Great for food, beverage, and pharma sectors
These conveyors provide durability and hygienic advantages where stainless steel might be too expensive or less flexible.
7. Pneumatic Conveyors
Use Case: Best for powder and granule transfer in sterile or dust-sensitive environments.
Key Features:
-
Air pressure-driven
-
Contained transport of materials
-
Used in chemical and pharmaceutical plants
These systems allow clean, contactless movement of materials and prevent contamination.
