Conveyor

Conveyors are the circulatory system of the supply chain and attention to performance, quality, noise levels and serviceability are critical at HK Systems. Warehouse productivity, carton rates and the trend towards lighter cartons has geometrically increased the need for high performance equipment in terms of throughput and reliability. In addition, shorter production and distribution life cycles require frequent process changes that mandate adaptable and reconfigurable equipment.

HK Systems offers cost effective, highly standardized modular conveyor systems designed to be reorganized quickly. Our standard conveyor uses common off-the-shelf components universally shared across the product suite. Features include “plug and play” air control systems and snap together assemblies designed to expedite manufacturing, installation and quick maintenance changeout. This technique generates labor savings and high volume component discounts, enabling HK to offer quality conveyor at reduced costs.

HK Systems conveyor products offer:

• Robust heavy-duty construction and quality bearings designed to provide years of trouble-free service
• Standard conveyor comprised of common components require lower maintenance inventories
• Minimal adjustments - auto calibrating that reduces downtime and simplifies maintenance
• Snap together and plug and play technology facilitates rapid installation and commissioning – drastically reducing system implementation schedules
• A product line designed to meet and exceed OSHA safety and ergonomic requirements
• Rockwell DeviceNet control network to connect sensors and motors controls to PLCs. Networks are constructed of standard reusable control devices, modular components and cables to support rapid installation and reconfiguration
• Conveyor speeds can be easily changed using the HK low cost DeviceNet variable frequency motor controller designed specifically for conveyor applications
• Common components lower on-hand maintenance inventories
