Conveyor systems

Pallet conveyor systems

All from fully automated multi process flow systems to single cell solutions.

The EWAB pallet conveyor system is using pallets to transport workpieces between operations in manufacturing. 

The pallets are transported on the plastic chain by friction,
 and during decades this has showed to be the most efficient way to connect machines.

A conveyor system for high performance, reliability, up-time, modularity and fast re-configuration. 

Trusted by manufacturers worldwide.

✅ Less WIP     ✅ Higher margin per workpiece     ✅ Increased production     ✅ Traceability     ✅  Connected systems

Products in machining

Flexible flow lines

Flexible flow or Autonomous conveyor system.

  • Multi process flow system
  • Material is distributed on the pallet conveyor system between all operations automatically
  • From anywhere to anywhere
  • The flow is balanced, not the capacity
  • Several products in mixed flows possible
  • System output is optimized (pull)
  • Dynamic buffers
  • Layout based on highways and satellites
  • Shortest possible throughput time
  • Modular and reconfigurable solution.
  • With RFID seamless parts traceability

Continuous flow lines

For serial & parallel operations.
Automated conveyor system used in both assembly and manufacturing.

  • Material is distributed on the conveyor system between all operations automatically
  • Material can be guided instead of autonomous
  • Operations in sequence
  • The capacity is often balanced
  • Buffers necessary between operations
  • Modular and reconfigurable solution.
  • With RFID seamless parts traceability

Machine buffer loops

This conveyor is a stand-alone unit.

  • Mostly used when the objective is to integrate the loop into a single operation.
  • Buffer solutions for various machines
  • Different size and shapes
  • Modular solution
  • Wide range of additional functions
  • Very compact footprint
