Overview

Enhance Workflow with Deluxe Systems’ Skatewheel Conveyors

Skatewheel conveyor moves flat-bottomed cartons, totes, and packages on rows of free-spinning wheels, with no power required. The wheels give lower rolling resistance than rollers for light loads, so product moves with a light push or a slight pitch.

It is light, easy to reposition, and a fit for shipping lanes, pack stations, and temporary or flexible setups. Curved and flexible sections route product around corners and expand or contract to fit the space, and the wheel beds splice into roller and powered runs where a line needs both. Best suited to firm, flat-bottomed items that track straight on the wheels.

Why It Matters

Engineered for the job

Our skate wheel conveyors reduce reliance on manual handling and powered systems, utilizing gravity to facilitate effortless movement of loads. This makes them ideal for environments where energy efficiency and cost savings are a priority.

Lightweight & Easy to Move

Constructed with flexible frames, our conveyors are perfect for temporary setups and adaptable material flow. Their lightweight design allows for quick reconfiguration and relocation to suit changing operational requirements.

Durable & Low Maintenance

Built with high-quality steel or aluminum frames, our skatewheel conveyors ensure long-term reliability and minimal maintenance. The robust construction withstands the demands of heavy-duty environments, making them a smart investment for any business.

Customizable Configurations

Available in straight and curved sections, these conveyors can be tailored to fit any workspace. Whether you need a specific angle or length, our customizable solutions cater to diverse application needs.
