The Duravant family of operating companies serve the food processing, packaging and material handling segments.
BestConnect rigid modular conveyors provide a solution for companies to quickly adapt to changing business requirements by utilizing highly reconfigurable components to create systems with different layouts as needed or during high seasonal peaks. BestConnect can be utilized to create systems for a variety of applications including package transfers, semi-automated sorts, and tying in manual packaging / work stations. These solutions can be quickly installed or reconfigured thanks to modular design, minimal components and hardware, and simple controls that utilize 120 VAC power.
Straight sections are the major building block of any system, while curves allow changes in product flow direction, and coated roller inclines allow elevation changes. Centralizers center packages before and after curves, and skews push the product to one side or the other. Merges can be utilized to pull index one lane into another, and lift gates can be utilized to allow operators to pass through the conveyor as needed.
