We combine advanced engineering and high-quality materials to build each heavy-duty roller chain conveyor for durability and long-term performance.
Every roller chain conveyor is built from heavy structural steel and finished to survive continuous scrap, recycling, and heavy industrial duty. The frame, tubing, and pan sides are MIG-welded with Grade 8 hardware and 10-gauge gusset plates, then sandblasted and powder-coated for corrosion resistance.

Hardware
Our heavy-duty roller chain conveyors are designed, engineered, and manufactured to outperform the recognized standards for conveyor safety, performance, and reliability.
We design and build custom control systems for your heavy-duty roller chain conveyor, including start/stop sequencing, e-stop integration, and interlocks with upstream and downstream equipment. The control panel houses the hardware, while the control system programming handles the logic.
When standard models don't fit, we design a heavy-duty roller chain conveyor around your material, footprint, and throughput, and when you need more than one conveyor, we engineer the full line.
Combine roller chain conveyors with feeding, sorting, baler infeed, and transport equipment into one integrated line. We handle the engineering, controls, and integration across every transfer point.
Configure the frame, chain, belt, drive, and controls of a single roller chain conveyor to match your material, layout, and tonnage targets. Adjust width, length, drive power, components, safety devices, and finish.
Various chain pitches, roller sizes, and chain pull capacities, with rubber combo, hinged steel, apron pan, and Z-pan belts. Rubber combo belts can add abrasion, heat, fire, oil, and anti-static properties.
Horsepower from 5 HP to 25 HP or more, with Nord, Dodge, and SEW drive brands, plus configurable voltage, phase, enclosure, and service factor.
Engineered for specific materials and operating conditions.
Meet state, local, or regulatory requirements with custom drawings, models, and operating manuals.
Match any RAL color or physical sample through our paint process.
We supply roller chain belts in standard widths from 36 to 96 inches, with larger custom belts reaching 120 inches.
Overlapping pans in 3/16, 1/4, 3/8, or 1/2-inch thickness for positive drive.
Best for heavy objects in auto recycling and manufacturing, hardware and assemblies, and hot materials such as clinker and castings.
For abrasion, heat, fire, oil, chemical, or anti-static requirements, see our industrial belts. We also carry accessories for heavy-duty roller chain belt conveyors, including cleats, side skirts, training idlers, and belt scrapers.
Fluent supplies replacement parts and wear components to keep your heavy-duty roller chain conveyor running at peak performance. Contact us with your conveyor's model number, and we'll supply the parts to get you back up and moving.
Flame-cut and hardened replacement sprockets machined to OEM specs, in all sizes and capacities.
Configure a heavy-duty roller chain conveyor sized to your operation. Fluent builds units for recycling, waste management, manufacturing, and other heavy industries, with chain, belt, drive, and layout options matched to your material. See more conveyors for recycling or contact our team to start a build.
Built for a demanding material handling application in Woodward, Oklahoma, this heavy-duty hinged steel roller chain conveyor belt was designed to handle tough operating conditions with dependable performance.
