Gripper System
A gripper conveyor is a specialized material handling system that securely holds products between two synchronized side-gripping chains, allowing smooth transportation in horizontal, inclined, or vertical directions. It is ideal for applications requiring product elevation, inversion, orientation changes, or transfer between production processes while minimizing floor space.
Designed for flexibility and reliable performance, gripper conveyors integrate seamlessly with filling, packaging, labeling, inspection, and automated production lines. Their modular construction allows easy installation, quick product changeovers, and smooth handling of bottles, containers, cartons, and other packaged products.
