About this Section: Poly-tier
supports provide sturdy support for multi-level conveyor lines. This
support option is available for most horizontal power and gravity
conveyors.
Some things to consider when selection poly-tier supports:
- Make sure you have appropriate clearance in-between the
levels. If the upper level has a drive assembly, use the
catalog specifications to determine how far the drive assemble hangs
below the conveyor frame.
- Consider the tallest product moving on the conveyors. If the
product is a carton, be considerate of the flaps if the product is
unsealed.
- If the upper conveyor is narrower than the lower level, consider
that the knee brace may interfere with product travel on the lower
level.
- The standard configuration is for 2 levels. However, additional
crosspipes may be ordered to make the support capable of supporting
more than 2 levels.
