Activated Roller Belts

Activated Roller Belt (ARB) technology has exploded into the marketplace. Although roller-embedded chains have been around for many years, the new and ever expanding creativity in how it is applied has spawned a whole new way of thinking when it comes to case and pack handling. Activated Roller Belts, combined with a Sentry controls package, give the end user the ability to make complex maneuvers in very small footprints.

Sentry is a licensed OEM for the Activated Roller Belt solution. This is a proven and innovative method of sorting, merging, rejecting, and even rotating packages with positive rail justification. Pneumatically actuated skid plates, located under the carry-way of the chain, form "activation zones". When energized, these zones influence, manipulate, and direct the flow of the product with ease and precision without compromising affordability.
