Handling & Use Requirements
Handling & Use Requirements
Equipment must be used within rated load capacities and installed on suitable warehouse flooring. Improper loading, uneven distribution, or use outside intended applications can result in structural failure.
Inspect all shipments upon delivery and note any freight damage before signing. Installation and final configuration should be verified by qualified personnel to ensure safe operation.
Delivery & Freight Shipping
Delivery & Freight Shipping
All equipment ships via LTL or dedicated freight carriers and is delivered curbside or dock-high depending on facility setup. Liftgate service is not included unless specifically requested at the time of quote.
You are responsible for unloading the shipment and must have appropriate equipment (forklift or dock access) available at delivery. Failure to meet delivery requirements may result in re-delivery fees.
Inspect all items upon arrival before signing the Bill of Lading. Any visible damage must be noted at delivery—claims cannot be processed after acceptance without documentation.
Lead times vary based on product type, configuration, and supplier availability. You will receive confirmation of estimated ship dates after order review.

24" Width Flexible Gravity Conveyors for Portable Warehouse Operations
24" Width Flexible Gravity Conveyors are expandable portable conveyor systems designed for carton, tote, and package movement in warehouse shipping, receiving, fulfillment, and packaging operations. These gravity-driven conveyor systems allow facilities to create temporary or reconfigurable conveyor lines without permanent installation requirements.
Flexible gravity conveyors are commonly used in ecommerce fulfillment centers, distribution facilities, parcel handling operations, packaging stations, and loading dock environments where fixed conveyor systems are impractical. The expandable design allows the conveyor to collapse into a compact footprint for storage and rapidly deploy when additional conveyor capacity is needed.
Key Features
- 24" overall conveyor width for carton and package handling
- 5" axle centers for controlled gravity flow
- 3:1 expansion ratio for compact storage and flexible deployment
- Heavy-duty 5/16" wheel axles
- Steel skate wheels with precision ball bearings
- Adjustable conveyor height from 31-1/2" to 42-1/2"
- 6" x 2" casters and integrated handles on each leg section
- Solid weld construction on all leg supports
- Four-point leg support connections for increased stability
- Heavy-duty 7 gauge steel side links
Common Warehouse Applications
- Truck loading and unloading operations
- Shipping and receiving departments
- Ecommerce fulfillment packing lines
- Cross-docking operations
- Temporary conveyor extensions
- Packaging and assembly workstations
- Parcel and carton movement
- Overflow conveyor lines during peak seasons
When to Use Flexible Gravity Conveyors
Flexible gravity conveyors are best suited for facilities that require portable conveyor systems, temporary conveyor lines, or frequently changing material handling layouts. These systems perform well in fulfillment operations, shipping departments, packaging stations, and loading dock environments where mobility and storage flexibility are operational priorities.
When NOT to Use Flexible Gravity Conveyors
Do not use flexible gravity conveyors for pallet transport, powered accumulation, heavy industrial production lines, or permanently fixed high-throughput conveyor systems. These conveyor systems are not designed for forklift loading, uneven floor environments, or unstable products with irregular bottom surfaces.

Operational Limitations and Conveyor Selection Considerations
Flexible gravity conveyors depend on product weight distribution and gravity-assisted flow to move materials efficiently. Cartons with damaged bottoms, unstable packaging, soft bags, or inconsistent weight distribution may not convey properly.
Performance may decrease on uneven warehouse floors or in environments requiring continuous high-speed throughput. Conveyor selection should also account for carton dimensions, throughput expectations, loading dock configuration, and available staging space.
