Pallet De-Stacking and Handling

This automated pallet handling system combines pallet de-stacking, heavy-duty chain drag conveyor transport, robotic loading, and load reorientation into one integrated solution.

Pallets are automatically separated and released into the system, transported and positioned for robotic loading, then reoriented on a chain drag turntable for controlled discharge.

Designed around the application, the system reduces manual pallet handling while providing reliable transport, positioning, and directional control for demanding industrial operations.

Why Structural Channel Matters at the Dock

Truckloader durability is best communicated by connecting design details to the hazards found at a dock.

Truckloaders operate near trailers, forklifts, carts, and constant product movement. The TL2 uses a 10-inch structural steel channel framework to withstand demanding loading-dock conditions. Rollers sit low in the frame, allowing the side channels to act as integral product guides.

Built for the Mix of E-Commerce Fulfillment

E-commerce systems may handle cartons, polybags, and padded mailers within the same process. Curves, merges, alignment sections, accumulation zones, and scanning points must work together while maintaining product control. This system was assembled and tested with representative packages before shipment.

Why Roller Centers Matter

Roller centers directly affect product support and are often overlooked during early conveyor selection.

A product should normally contact at least three rollers while moving across a roller conveyor. Shorter products may require closer roller centers to prevent tipping or unstable movement. Product length, weight distribution, bottom condition, and transfer points all affect the final spacing.

The battery powered GTL telescoping gravity truckloader is designed for loading docks and shipping areas that require simple, flexible operation. The gravity roller bed allows cartons to move smoothly with minimal mechanical complexity, while the telescoping design helps operators extend product flow directly into trailers. A 90W VDC battery powered drive eliminates the need for a fixed electrical connection, giving facilities greater freedom in positioning the unit where it is needed most.

Engineered for efficient dock performance, the GTL can operate up to two weeks on a single charge, reducing charging frequency and minimizing cord management at the dock. With the mobile, self-contained configuration and wide range of applications, the GTL provides a practical solution for streamlined trailer loading operations.

The CrossX™ Easy Transfer Roller converts a standard roller conveyor section into a bidirectional diverting solution while keeping the existing conveyor frame in place. Designed as a drop-in replacement for 1.9" O.D. grooved rollers, CrossX™ installs into virtually any brand of compatible conveyor frame with no frame modifications required.

By replacing only the roller, CrossX™ provides a more cost-effective alternative to removing an existing roller section and replacing it with a TRT belt conveyor. CrossX™ enables smooth, controlled lateral movement of cartons, totes, and irregular loads while reducing manual push effort by up to 80%. It also supports product reorientation similar to a ball transfer, making it well suited for manual transfer zones, sortation support areas, intersecting conveyor lines, and operator-assisted package handling.

Built for the loads standard conveyors can’t handle. Roach Heavy Duty Conveyors are engineered to move extremely heavy, oversized, and high-impact loads with controlled movement, structural stability, and reliable performance in demanding industrial environments. From CDLR systems capable of handling sheet metal loads up to 60,000 lbs. to heavy-duty chain transfers and belt conveyors, these systems keep material moving through fabrication, assembly, staging, and processing operations.

When selecting a live roller conveyor system, understanding the differences between Belt Driven and Chain Driven options can help determine which solution best fits the application.

Belt Driven Live Roller conveyors transmit power from a continuous belt to individual rollers. They are used for controlled transport of cartons, totes, and unit loads where accumulation, zoning, product spacing, and handling accuracy are important. Belt Driven systems can also integrate with curves, spurs, merges, and elevation changes, making them well suited for accumulation, sortation, and product routing in manual and automated material handling environments.

Chain Driven Live Roller conveyors transmit power through chains that mechanically link adjacent rollers. This roll-to-roll chain drive provides positive traction and consistent roller rotation under load, making Chain Driven systems well suited for palletized products, drums, and other rigid unit loads. They are also commonly selected for applications involving accumulation, frequent starts and stops, reversing, or indexing, as well as environments where oil, grease, or debris may be present.

The right conveyor depends on the application. Belt Driven systems offer controlled handling for cartons, totes, and unit loads, while Chain Driven systems provide positive traction for heavier or irregular loads.
Understanding the load, environment, and required product movement is an important part of selecting the right conveyor for your material handling system.
