Dampened Stops offer a pneumatic cushioning force to the work piece that slows the impact of the pallet against the stop. The cushioning force can be adjusted to suit specific application needs. Larger stops and higher cushioning forces are available upon request. […]
Glide-Line’s Zero Contact Zoned Conveyor is a custom accumulation conveyor with an individual drive for every product zone. It eliminates product collision entirely while significantly improving energy efficiency and reducing wear and tear on the conveyor. By controlling each zone individually, we removed issues caused by product contact and have improved accumulation methods. Get more […]

Vertical Transfer Units (VTUs) transfer pallets from one level to another. This unit utilizes a section of transport conveyor as an elevator platform and benefits from a vertical servo-driven actuator for positioning. The elevator platform conveyor can operate in either direction, enabling the VTU to accept and discharge pallets from both sides, and the servo […]
Glide-Line – Zero Contact Zoned Conveyor, a gentler, more reliable and energy efficient conveyor solution by eliminating 100% of product contact and backpressure caused by accumulation. With traditional conveyors, there is often backpressure from upstream pallets, motors running continuously, unnecessary wear and tear on the entire system and continuously running the conveyors which wastes energy. […]
This zero contact zoned conveyor is designed to handle appliances directly on the conveyor belt (with no pallet on the conveyor system). Watch and Learn more as Kevin Mauger, President of Glide-Line, explains the what, how and when of the conveyor. https://www.glide-line.com/zero-pressure-conveyor-for-appliance-handling […]

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 nature of our systems, curves […]
