Low-cost, high-quality flexible plastic chain conveyor

FlexMove is designed to provide highly competitive, cost-effective, incredibly flexible plastic chain (or slat) conveying options for a wide range of industry applications such as filling, packaging, inspection, storage, general manufacturing and assembly in industries such as automotive, electronics, pharmaceutical, labelling and many, many more.

Plastic flexible link chain conveying is not a new concept, but the FlexMove family is provided in a more comprehensive range than some of the current offerings available and at a lower price. The FlexMove system is proven globally and the comprehensive range of standard modular components is manufactured with the latest technological advancements in aluminium extrusion and casting, precision fabrication, injection moulding and metal forming.

Automation Supplies says FlexMove users will want for nothing in technology by comparison with even the best, more established, more expensive systems currently on the market, with a vast array of options available to give a real competitive choice. Chain widths of 35, 63, 83, 103 and 150mm are all available as standard and widths up to 300mm can also be accommodated.

Drive systems available include direct, suspended, intermediate, catenary and bend wheel options. A series of low-cost side rail systems are also available. Bends are available that have either sliding or rolling action. Customers can specify and create twin-lane or multiple-lane pallet handling conveyors easily and quickly with minimal tools. The FlexMove system can transport products horizontally, on an incline, a decline and even vertically, thanks to a wide range of belt options and modular design simplicity.

Connect to other conveyors

Furthermore, it can be easily interconnected with other existing systems of either FlexMove or other manufacturers using simple hand tools. FlexMove construction allows for faster system installation, reliable operation and cost-effectiveness in a conveyor system that is versatile enough to adapt for future production refinements or expansion.

FlexMove customers will also enjoy market-leading prices, as the system is conceived and designed to augment existing similar systems on the market yet be a more economical, high-quality option. Spare parts and components can also be interchanged with some of the more expensive systems currently on offer in the UK, and save users thousands in spare parts replacement costs. A stainless steel-based system will also be available shortly.

But perhaps the most important difference with the FlexMove system will be the mode of supply. Automation Supplies can deliver a fully operating system if required, but with FlexMove there are more options. The whole conveyor can be ordered as a built-up working conveyor to plug in and go, having been pre-assembled and tested. But if customers require more involvement themselves for reasons of budget or more practical issues, a modular alternative is offered, with the customer completing the assembly on site, or even a kit of parts for the customer to assemble the complete conveyor from scratch.
