Drive Package
BMCD (Bottom Mounted Center Drive) is standard; SMED (Side Mounted End Drive) is optional. End drives are normally provided for multi-level transporters such as over/under lines.
Line Speed
Line speeds of 20 through 60 FPM are common, but lines with speeds ranging from 5 to 140 FPM are in service.
Chain
A steel, carrier roller chain, 1-1/4" pitch, features side rollers made of steel or plastic. They are located every pitch on alternating sides of the chain. Every third plastic roller is a brake roller which provides quicker pallet start up. This brake roller chain is pre-lubricated for cleaner operation and less maintenance.

Steel driver and idler sprockets have hardened teeth. Idlers have sealed bearings.
Plastic End Shoes
Plastic shoes are located at end of the conveyor tracks in lieu of idler sprockets.
