In the case of overhead conveyors, the name says it all: They're conveyor systems that operate above workers and other equipment, utilizing overhead space that would otherwise remain empty. Overhead conveyors typically consist of a continuous chain circuit that runs through the entire track, carriers that are used to handle the material, and a motor in the case of electrically driven systems. Each powered overhead conveyor consists of: A continuous circuit of chain running through track and a variety of vertical and horizontal curves. A Drive unit that grabs the chain and pull it through the track.The chain uses roller bearings to move along the track with minimal friction, and a take-up is used to maintain proper tension on the chain over the service life of the system.
