Power & free conveyor
A power and free conveyor system provides you with the highest level of flexibility.
We apply power and free conveyor systems for lines requiring one or more of the following functions:
- High load capacity (0-6000 kg or very long items – typical 5-25 m in length)
- Very high flexibility – more booth systems in the same line, more process etc.
- Loading and unloading by hoist

Function
Each wagon carries one or more products or product parts. The wagon runs in an open “free” profile, and on top of this is the chain profile, the “power” – hence the name “Power and Free”
This system allows a use of the conveyor very similar to a railway track, which is the easiest way to describe the power and free system.
Each individual wagon can among other things:
- Be started and stopped independent of each other
- Buffer products in a buffer before loading – application – ovens etc.
- Go in separate path/direction, and can obtain different processes
- Be equipped with a number readable for the controller, giving all information about the full process – the current status – time left – parts on wagon etc.
