SmartFlex Helix Conveyor

The new SmartFlex Helix conveyor from Dorner Manufacturing Corp. features a proprietary flexible chain manufactured by FlexMove, a Dorner Holding Co., located in Penang, Malaysia. The SmartFlex Helix can operate in a footprint as small as a 10’ x 10’, and is ideal for product handling applications where product needs to travel up or down in a confined space.

The conveyor’s compact design allows for 5 feet of elevation change in 10 feet (incline angle of up to 12°), giving users more freedom and flexibility in designing a material handling system with multiple layouts using a single conveyor. The SmartFlex Helix comes in three belt widths: 85 mm, 180 mm and 260 mm. Additionally, the SmartFlex Helix does not require any lubrication, providing a cleaner environment and reduced risk of contamination.
