Curve Conveyor Smooth Pallet Curving Glide-Line curves are a mechanism to change the direction of a pallet. Pallets are conveyed around the curves by means of a solid, round urethane belt that is driven on v-groove pulleys. Small idler pulleys follow the track to reduce friction and prevent wear and tear. Due to the configurable […]
Building Resilient and High-Performing Optical Manufacturing with Glide-Line Solutions Introduction: Building Resilient and Efficient Optical Production In today’s competitive optical industry, manufacturers need more than speed—they need resilient, precise, and scalable conveyor automation. Glide-Line solutions, integrated with NCC FlexMove conveyors, provide modular systems that ensure products move safely and efficiently through each stage of production, […]
Lift Transfer Unit Accuracy with a Small Footprint Lift Transfer Units move work piece pallets from one transport conveyor to another. Each unit contains a pair of belts that lift to engage the pallet perpendicular to the direction of flow. The lift action raises the pallet up and over the guide rail so it can […]
Glide-Line’s automated stacker unit is designed for the optical industry to streamline the handling of optical surfacing trays. This compact, stainless steel unit automatically stacks trays by count or height, reducing manual labor and minimizing repetitive motion injuries. Once stacked, trays are seamlessly transferred onto gravity roller conveyors for smooth, hands-free movement downstream — improving […]
