Small independent wheels
Rows of passive wheels provide multiple contact points beneath a carton. A firm, even base needs enough wheel contact to remain stable through straight sections and curves.
Gravity skatewheel conveyors for cartons
Custom-made gravity skatewheel conveyors for flat-bottom cartons. Configure the expandable frame, working width, heights and small-wheel support around the manual or gravity route.
Made to order for your goods and layout
Every conveyor is custom made for the client. Define the length, width, heights, conveying surface and controls around your operation, with the selected configuration and project scope set out in writing.

How the equipment works
Gravity or manual movement
The wheels do not power the load. Movement depends on a suitable gradient or operator input; receiving stops and safe handling positions are part of the layout.
Expandable construction
Scissor side links vary the working length and route. Check support spacing at full expansion and reserve space for the contracted conveyor.
Application & fit
Rows of small passive wheels support a firm, regular carton base at separate contact points. The wheel pattern, frame extension, curves and gradient must suit that base throughout the route. Choose the operating and stored envelope around the packing positions, manual access and controlled receiving arrangement.

Check before selecting the configuration
Check that the carton base bridges rows of separate wheels through curves. Identify the manual push or suitable gradient, safe stopping method and support at each transfer.

Configuration choices
Made to order for your operation
Each skatewheel conveyor is made to order around the carton base and handling method. The frame size, wheel contact pattern and heights are selected as a complete route.
Layout and operating choices
Expandable carton route
Set working and retracted lengths, usable width and curves around the packing task. Check that the smallest base stays supported by sufficient wheel contact at every position.
Manual or gravity handling
Choose the transfer heights and intended slope around how operators feed and receive the cartons. Include guides, stopping arrangements and stable mobile supports in the layout.
Reference dimensions for custom configurations
Every conveyor is made to order. These dimensions are configuration references, not a limit on the width, length or working height you can request. We select the final dimensions and options together for your goods and layout.

Skatewheel conveyors: Configuration and ordering questions
Explore the configuration, integration and ordering decisions for this equipment. Send your load details and layout to discuss your own project.
Can you customize the skatewheel conveyor dimensions?
Yes. Lengths, usable width and working heights are configured around your cartons and site. The selected wheel contact pattern, frame extension and supports must work together at those dimensions.
What carton bases suit skatewheels?
A firm, flat and regular base must contact enough wheels to remain stable. Small feet, uneven bottoms or soft packaging need a separate support assessment rather than assuming that a wider conveyor solves the problem.
How does a skatewheel conveyor differ from gravity rollers?
Skatewheels provide rows of separate small contact points. A gravity roller spans the conveying width. Both are passive, but the support beneath the item differs and must suit its base.
Can the frame extend and follow curves?
An expandable frame can be configured for the intended working and stored positions. Extension and curves change the contact pattern, so the smallest carton must be checked throughout that envelope.
What slope is needed for gravity movement?
The slope depends on the carton base, weight, wheel behaviour and receiving conditions. Provide the goods and available transfer heights so the route can be selected with controlled movement and stopping.
Can the wheels drive or sort parcels?
No. These are passive supporting wheels, moved by a suitable gradient or manual input. A powered wheel sorter uses driven elements and controls to change a parcel’s direction and performs a different task.
What is needed to connect it to a packing station?
Send the station height, carton flow direction, smallest footprint and space for operators. The end transfer, support positions, guidance and stopping arrangement are selected around that connection.
What determines the price of a custom skatewheel conveyor?
Working and stored lengths, width, wheel pattern, supports, height adjustment and accessories affect the cost. The quotation also defines the selected delivery and installation scope.
How long does delivery take?
Estimated delivery: 60 days. The written quotation confirms the custom configuration, destination and delivery schedule. All products are CE certified.
