Lite Series FAQ
I have a machine with a parts catcher that I want to run overnight. Why should I choose the Lite Series?
The Lite Series was originally developed specifically for this type of application. It provides a simple, reliable, and economical way to move parts away from a machine automatically, allowing production to continue even when operators are not present. Many customers use the Lite Series for “lights out” manufacturing because it helps prevent parts from piling up or causing machine stoppages. By keeping parts moving efficiently, the conveyor helps maximize machine uptime and productivity – even while you are sleeping.
The Lite Series has “built in” side guides. Can you make them taller?
Absolutely! While the Lite Series already includes built-in side guides that are nearly ¾” tall, additional fixed side guides up to 4” high can be added for applications requiring extra product containment. This is especially useful when handling larger parts, bulk materials, or products that may shift during transport. The added guides help keep products safely on the belt while maintaining the simplicity and compact design that makes the Lite Series so popular.
Why should I choose the Lite Series over the Low Profile Series?
The Lite Series is an excellent choice for customers looking for a dependable and cost-effective conveyor solution. It was designed to provide simple, efficient product movement without unnecessary complexity. For applications such as machine tending, parts removal, or basic product transfer, the Lite Series delivers reliable performance while remaining economical and easy to integrate. Its compact footprint, built-in guides, and straightforward design make it one of the most practical solutions for everyday conveying applications.
I want to add a hopper for pulling parts up to a Gaylord. Does the Lite Series work?
Yes! Many customers successfully use the Lite Series with hoppers for elevating and transferring parts into gaylords, bins, or containers. The built-in side guides help contain parts as they travel up the conveyor, making it especially effective in these applications. The Lite Series is commonly used in machining, screw shops, and plastics operations where parts need to be collected efficiently with minimal operator involvement. Additional guide options and cleats can also be added depending on the type of product being conveyed.
What is the height of the Lite Series?
At only 2½” tall, the Lite Series is designed to fit into applications where space is limited. Its compact profile allows it to slide easily under machines, parts catchers, or existing production equipment without requiring major modifications to your setup. Despite its small size, the conveyor is built for dependable day-to-day performance and can handle a wide range of industrial applications. Its low profile and portability make it a favorite for customers needing quick and efficient integration.
