Conveyor & Material Handling Systems

A conveyor system is a mechanical device, or handling system, used to move materials, products, or goods from one place to another within a facility. It's a crucial element in material handling, particularly in manufacturing and warehouse automation, allowing for efficient and continuous movement of items. A handling system, in a broader context, encompasses any equipment or process used to manage materials, including conveyors, but also encompassing other methods like forklifts, robots, and automated guided vehicles (AGVs).
