Model "DC" Drag Chain Conveyor
Drag Chain Conveyor
ACSI Model DC is a heavy-duty drag chain conveyor for moving compatible pallets, skids, and other unit loads whose runners can be supported by two strands of conveyor chain. The positive chain drive and available low-profile configuration make it useful for pallet transfer, work positioning, and layouts where roller conveyor is not the best match for the load’s construction or orientation. Within its published limits, the model can handle distributed loads up to 10,000 pounds as part of an engineered pallet handling system.
