Conveying systems are a common piece of mechanical handling equipment that allows you to move materials easily from one location to another. It is especially useful in its application of transporting heavy or bulk materials. Conveyer systems are popular to use in the material handling and package industries because they allow for quick and efficient transportation of a wide variety of materials. They are also commonly used in many industries such as the construction, automotive, computer, food processing, agricultural, chemical and bottling industries, to name just a few. Different conveying systems are used to meet the various needs of the different industries and some examples of these systems include chain conveyers that consist of enclosed tracks, I-Beam, power & free, towline and hand pushed trolleys.
