The high-friction, soft durometer belt protects products from scratches while DC drives with precise control ensure smooth stops and starts at every stage in the assembly process. Combining these capabilities with vertical transfers, shuttles, merges, and rotating units provides you with expert product manipulation features and material handling techniques compared to any other direct product handling conveyor. 

Take control of your assembly operations with individually controlled zones that accumulate, orientate, and manipulate products exactly the way you need. Improve throughput, eliminate product damage, and deliver according to your customers’ demanding specifications. 

With Glide-Line’s zero-contact zoned conveyor, you can achieve your production goals and save on costs while conveying products directly, without having to use pallets, totes, or trays.
