SS Slat Chain or crate conveyor chains are mainly used in areas where products are conveyed in trays, crates or containers like PET and glass bottles typically without direct contact with the product. A major advantage of Thermoplastic slat chain conveyors over plate link conveyors lies within the ability of the platelets of a slat conveyor to flex, and therefore turn corners, complex loops, and even spirals. This makes them highly regarded in continuous manufacturing processes, bottling guide plants, etc.
