A Complete Guide to Telescopic Conveyor

 Facilities to transport the material are a primary need in the warehouse or manufacturing plant. Transportation of materials could be done through various ways; usage of telescopic conveyors is one of them. Telescopic conveyors are used for loading & unloading cartons, boxes, and bags into or from containers and trucks. They are an effective automated solution for material handling equipment. It reduces the need for manual handling of equipment. They provide quick turnaround times and reduce the loading & unloading time. Also known as extendable conveyors or cantilevered booms, they are ideal to exercise in large-sized logistics areas. Integrated with a frame to support wheels, belts, or rollers using which the materials are transported from one place to another. It's one end remains fixed and the other can be retracted. They are mobile and have an adjustable length.

Types 

Telescopic conveyors are classified as telescopic belt conveyors and telescopic roller conveyors. Both types fulfill different industrial requirements and possess different technical specifications. Let us check their varying features and services.

Telescopic Belt Conveyor

Telescopic belt conveyors bridge the gap between the storage area and loading & unloading point. The process begins when the vehicle is docked, the telescopic belt conveyor is moved within and the workers move boxes from vehicle to storage and the other way round. When the truck is filled or vacant, the conveyor is extended or retracted accordingly using controls. It can also be integrated with RFID and bar code readers to track the loaded and unloaded items. 

Telescopic Roll Conveyor 

Also known as expandable conveyors, these telescopic roll conveyors are built in multiple sections which are packed to make them occupy a little space. These equipment are tested on various quality parameters to ensure flawless construction and deal with diverse client’s requirements. 

Conclusion

Our telescopic conveyors are manufactured with a hydraulic tilt, that allows the equipment to be used with various vehicles having distinct heights. They can be used in various industries such as food & beverages, e-commerce, ports, cement, manufacturing, and warehousing. Integration with simulation tools helps in decision-making. Operator utilization systems are used to generate metrics per shift, every hour, or month.
