Gripper Elevator | Wedge Conveyor

Gripper Elevator

The Gripper Elevator has the advantage of securely elevating or lowering product using very little floor space (2'- 4" x 9' is required.) Side grippers firmly but gently grasp the products traveling in line with continuous transport through the elevation change and a seamless discharge onto the take-away conveyor.

The products transported on Nercon's Gripper Elevator have ranged from:

glass
cans
plastic containers

pouches
bundles of tissue

Standard speeds of up to 150 feet per minute can be expected on the Gripper Elevators, with faster speeds available using optional turn discs. The Gripper Elevator adjusts from 0" - 8" with the turn of a single hand wheel. Optional widths are also available.

Product Handling Applications

Suitable for use in many industries, Gripper Elevators are used for single product elevation or lowering. Side grippers transport product safely and securely onto the take away conveyor.
