Our floor conveyor system range

We believe that we offer the most comprehensive range of chain-based floor conveyor systems available in the market. A total of 10 different systems have been developed for unit load weights from a few grams to 2,000 kg. All the systems have been developed for the extremes of the surface finishing industry and are designed for high accuracy of presentation of product to process along with excellent stability characteristics.


Understanding floor conveyor technology

Floor conveyors are typically used in manufacturing facilities to move parts from one location to another. They can pass through production or process areas where personnel cannot enter.

Floor conveyors are designed for a wide range of industrial material handling applications, including parts handling, assembly lines in manufacturing or distribution centres. In the finishing/surface treatment industry, floor conveyors are used to move products through processes such as pre-treatment, cleaning, spray painting, powder coating, ovens, etc.

Due to their modular design, Caldan conveyors are easy to integrate into most installations. They are energy efficient and use less power than most other conveyor types. When used correctly, they are an incredibly efficient, safe and reliable means of conveying that maximises space and minimises disruption.

Floor conveyors can be divided into 2 groups based on technical complexity: Monorail floor conveyors and Power & Free floor conveyors.

How does a Power and Free floor conveyor work?
The Power and Free floor conveyor, which is the most technically complex type, offers asynchronous conveying. Each set of trolleys can stop and start independently and move loads at different speeds.

Power & Free floor conveyors are based on a dual profile system. The upper ‘free’ profile is used for the trolleys and the lower ‘power’ profile is used for the power chain. Pusher dogs are fitted to the power chain at the same pitch and are used to pull the carriers around the system.

Stop stations are used to disengage the link between the power chain and the trolleys. When a stop station is closed, the carrier stops while the power chain continues to move. Due to the design of the pusher and trolley, several carriers can accumulate behind a stop station.

Today, our floor conveyor systems operate in a wide range of demanding industries. Take a look at our many references from across the globe.
