Wedge Conveyors

wedge conveyors

The WhisperTrax WG-Series Wedge unit is designed to move product vertically up or down. The Wedge is a classic all-mechanical design, requiring no sensors or computer interface and offering the simple reliability of all-mechanical movement; it grabs the parts on the sides, and off they go. All products in a given production run must be the same size and must be rigid, like cartons or other containers. The Wedge Units are available in two models: the MiniLink for lightweight products, and the MultiSpan for heavier products.

Two models available to suit a variety of Wedge conveyor applications
Variable speed range available
