Internal transport systems
We design and integrate internal material handling systems, including roller conveyors, chain conveyors, and pallet handling solutions, tailored to the plant’s production layout.

What is a pallet conveyor?
A pallet conveyor is a component of an internal transport system responsible for the controlled movement of palletized units between successive stages of the production, packaging, or storage process.
In practice, this is not a standalone device, but rather part of a larger system—integrated with stretch wrappers, palletizing robots, pallet warehouses, and pallet lifts.
In modern industrial facilities, conveyors form the foundation of material flow automation, eliminating manual handling and reducing the use of forklifts in production areas.
Pallet conveyors
Types of pallet conveyors
The choice of transport technology depends on the characteristics of the load, the line’s capacity, and operating conditions.
The following are most commonly used in pallet transport systems:
-
roller conveyors – for linear transport and accumulation zones,
-
chain conveyors – for transporting pallets with a specific load-bearing structure,
-
transfer systems and turntables – to change the direction of flow,
-
vertical conveyors (pallet lifts) – for transport between floors.
Each solution is designed for a specific application—not based on a catalog, but on the actual process flow.
How the pallet transport system works?
The pallet transport system is an integrated system of drives, sensors, and controls that ensures the controlled flow of loads in automatic mode.
Transport may take place:
-
continuously,
-
with pallet position control,
-
with signal integration with other devices in the line.
The control system monitors pallet movement, prevents collisions, and synchronizes operations with higher-level devices. This makes it possible to maintain consistent performance while ensuring process safety and repeatability.
Benefits of implementing a pallet conveyor system:
The use of automated pallet transport directly translates into:
-
a steady and predictable flow of material,
-
reduction of downtime caused by manual transport,
-
increase in production line efficiency,
-
improved workplace safety,
-
long-term reduction in operating costs.
A well-designed internal transport system eliminates bottlenecks and allows production to scale up without having to rebuild the entire infrastructure.
