Transport & Lift

Over & Under Conveyors

Over and Under Conveyors usually come in three position, five position, or seven position configurations. Customers commonly utilize gravity fed, inbound-outbound lanes, - however, powered lanes are a common option. Over/Unders are typically used to reduce fork truck demand, empower workers, and to index product racking into hard to reach manufacturing spaces. The Align Production Systems engineering team has years of experience designing custom engineered conveyor systems for industry leaders looking for specialty conveyor solutions to their manufacturing problems.

Features

Safety

By keeping workers distanced from fork truck operations, conveyor systems give workers the space they need to safely perform their duties.

Queueing

Fork truck operations see increased efficiency with products being queued up for operators to move.

Ergonomics

Common options on our conveyor systems are our lifts, tilts, and rotates to help get products on the conveyor lines in the correct ergonomic position.

Side by Side Conveyors

Easy & Safe Movement

Overview

Ā Inbound and outbound lanes can be either gravity or powered, with pop-up chain cross transfer stations as a common feature. In addition to rollers, APS can provide chain indexing systems. Don’t forget to consider integration of APS lifts, tilts, rotates, or large rack-handling turntables into these systems. APS handles heavy racks, pallets, dunnage and containers, commonly designing systems for 2,000 to 8,000 lbs. loads. Controls can range from simple, manual operator actuated, to more complex robot PLC interface ready systems.

Features

Safety & Time

By using a Hydraulic Upender, you can eliminate overhead cranes and position products or pallets in a safe manner. In addition to being safe, using an Upender saves substantial time over other methods of flipping products.

Counterbalance Valve

Also known as a load holding valve, the valve safely holds suspended loads in position and prevents run-away or overrunning loads.

Quick Rotation Time

90° flip times are quick, with times as low as you need them to be. Align specializes in custom designs and fabrication, meaning we’ll work with you to develop the perfect Upender for your application.

Features

360° ROTATION

Our Head and Tailstock features 360° bi-directional rotation with zero backlash holding torque, making it as easy as possible to get your weldment in the perfect position for welding.

In-Position Welding

Keeping welds safe and efficient is a huge priority among welders. By being able to control height and width and have multi-axis control of the weldment, workers can feel confident and comfortable while welding in-position every time.

All Electric

All of our welding positioners feature an electric slew bearing & ball screw lift system, eliminating hydraulic fluid mess and any fire hazards that would normally be an issue.
