SpanTech LLC in Glasgow, Kentucky, is proud to produce The Designer System® family of continuous plastic chain curving conveyors. The Designer System® is a truly modular conveyor system, capable of horizontal and vertical bends within one chain design. These systems are widely used in food production, packaging, pharmaceuticals, and manufacturing. The Designer System® represents the only sanitary plastic conveyance system that is a single, integrated design by one manufacturer. SpanTech also produces multiple types of transfers, both gravity (non-powered) and powered, for handling products at the start and end points of the conveyor.
In addition to our flagship Designer System® conveyor line, SpanTech has developed a variety of additional material handling solutions for many different applications. Our Laner systems have the ability to align randomly-oriented product so that it is flowing in controllable lanes. The High-Speed Switch is a lane divider/converger designed to split a flow of products into two, three, or four output lanes. The SaniSpan conveyor is designed especially for the harsh environments and cleanliness/sanitation requirements of the food industry. Our J-Trax conveyor is ideal for cooling, breading, enrobing, draining, and many other difficult applications. The Spiral Elevator or Spiral can handle any cooling, freezing, heating, or inclining/declining application you might have. And that’s still not all that SpanTech’s versatile line of material handling products has to offer. There is no limit to what can be done with our Designer System® line!
The Designer System®Advantages
Durable. SpanTech's Designer System® conveyors are more durable than competing conveyors. Large portions of original chain are still running on conveyors that have run six days a week for years, even in areas with high levels of contaminants.
Quiet. Our conveyor systems are designed as a complete system, with all parts created specifically to work together and reduce noise. Designer System® conveyors create one-twentieth the amount of noise of a conventional plastic conveyor system.
Safe. Our conveyor chains are completely captured to the frames, so there is no loose chain on the top or bottom of the conveyor. Dangerous catenaries have also been eliminated.
Clean. Our chain has a 40-75% open design (depending upon type of chain), allowing crumbs and debris to fall through. Cleaning is easy — the conveyors can be hosed down!
Easy to Maintain. The chain can be opened at any point with a standard screwdriver. Sprockets can be replaced without having to remove the drive shaft. And the modular design allows for standardization of replacement parts.
Easy to Modify. SpanTech uses modular bolted construction, so sections can be added, removed or changed. Drives, idlers, curves, and vertical bends are all individual modular units, and can be changed or replaced independently.
Fast Solutions. SpanTech has spent years optimizing its production processes to bring you the highest quality in the shortest time. Designer System® conveyors are built as complete systems by SpanTech in our Glasgow, Kentucky plant.
Partnering. SpanTech's Technical Center and Research & Development staff helps you find the best solution to your material handling problem. We back our systems with a one-year, on-site warranty which covers all parts.
