Pallet Handling

Our pallet handling expertise stems right back to the roots of MotionTech and has formed a solid platform for us to grow into the business we see today. This enables us to flourish within our core business sectors by providing complete end-to-end solutions, including the integration of conveyor systems that enhance pallet flow, maximise vertical space, and improve operational efficiency across warehouses and production environments.

The MotionTech approach

MotionTech’s pallet conveyors feature standard, simplistic, rugged designs that can be easily customised to suit the unit load being conveyed. Ideal for transporting pallets, containers, drums, and special fixtures, these systems provide reliable movement of heavy or bulky loads across warehouse and manufacturing environments.

Our modular based designs of pallet conveyors offer easy segmentation of these chain driven roller conveyors into controllable drive zones, accumulation zones, and simple insertion of transfers and other modular accessory devices. The modular versions also blend in well with other pallet conveyor systems and can be integrated with a belt conveyor system where smoother product handling or transport of smaller items is required within the wider material handling workflow.

Enhancing Pallet Flow and Operational Efficiency

Our pallet handling systems are engineered to optimise material flow, streamline order picking, and increase overall productivity within any manufacturing facility. Using a combination of gravity pallet conveyors and Powered Roller Pallet Conveyors, MotionTech ensures seamless pallet transport at both high and low floor level operations. Each solution is designed for precision, taking into account roller diameter, pallet weight, and throughput rates measured in pallets per hour to maintain balanced performance and consistent output.

By incorporating roller conveyor lanes, pallet separators, and pallet runners, our systems enable controlled pallet movement with maximum energy efficiency. This ensures smooth transitions between zones, reduces frictional resistance, and supports safe accumulation. The result is a robust, low‑maintenance conveyor network that enhances throughput, supports automated handling, and delivers the long‑term reliability expected from a leading conveyor manufacturer.

Fully integrated System

To allow a fully integrated system to be configured, we have a standard range of chain conveyors, transfers, shuttle cars, turntables and lifts that can be added to ensure the Conveyor system can meet the needs and speeds of your business.

For cold store applications, our pallet conveyors can be upgraded to operate in temperatures of -30 Degrees Celsius to ensure they do not lock up in the below-freezing temperatures and can run without assistance.

Pallet widths of up to 2000mm

Carrying Capacities of up to 8000kg

Low maintenance due to the robust design and manufacture

Manual and automated pallet turntables. Standalone or turnkey supply

Chain transfer conveyors

Our pallet handling solutions are designed to accommodate a wide range of load units, making it ideal for the efficient transport of heavy loads across your facility. With our modular design, each conveyor module can be easily adapted to fit the specific needs of your operation, ensuring a cost-effective solution. Whether you’re handling loaded pallets, using pallet dispensers, or requiring seamless pallet stacker/de-stacker operations, our pallet handling systems offer robust support. Our chain pallet conveyors and roller pallet conveyors are ideal for the safe and efficient dispatch of pallets within any pallet warehouse.

We also provide specialised options such as pallet lifts, pallet turntables for seamless pallet rotation, and transfer units that allow flexible control over the direction of pallet transport. Each pallet handling conveyor and pallet handling equipment solution we offer, from pallet chain ranges to pallet roller conveyors, ensures the optimal orientation and efficient pallet movement, making it an ideal conveyor solution for diverse industrial applications.
