CONVEYOR SYSTEM
A conveyor system is essential equipment in beverage and packaging industries, responsible for transporting bottles, cans, or containers between different machines in a production line. From filling machines to labeling, packaging, palletizing, and depalletizing, conveyor systems ensure smooth, efficient, and uninterrupted product flow. At Sunswell, we design and manufacture automatic conveyor systems that meet international standards. Our solutions cover air conveyors, chain conveyors, belt conveyors, and modular conveyors, making them suitable for water, juice, carbonated soft drinks, beer, liquor, edible oil, and daily care products.
INDUSTRY APPLICATION
1. Applications of Conveyor Systems
- Beverage Factories – water, juice, tea, carbonated drinks, beer, energy drinks.
