Omni Metalcraft Conveyor Systems

Reliable Material Flow for Warehouses, Distribution, and Manufacturing

Improve throughput from receiving to shipping with conveyor solutions built for predictable flow, safer handling, and long-term performance.

Belt Driven Live Roller Conveyor

A dependable powered roller system for controlled product flow, especially where accumulation and release timing matter.

Best For

Automated lines with merges, inspection points, and downstream pacing requirements.

Common Loads

Cartons, totes, drums, and palletized units with solid, stable bottoms.

  • Belt-under-roller drive provides steady traction and quiet transport.
  • Zoned accumulation enables controlled product queuing without line-wide stoppage.
  • Supports smoother handoff between picking, packing, and shipping lanes.
  • Modular sections simplify phased expansion as throughput grows.

Belt Conveyor

The most versatile conveyor style for moving a wide range of products with consistent direction and minimal product shifting.

Best For

Continuous transport over longer runs, inclines, declines, and product staging.

Common Loads

Cartons, polybags, packaged goods, furniture components, and flat sheet items.

  • Continuous belt surface supports small or irregular products better than rollers.
  • Improves product orientation through scanning, weigh, or labeling stations.
  • Lower manual touches helps reduce damage and labor strain.
  • Available with multiple belt compounds depending on friction and environment.

Chain Driven Live Roller Conveyor

Heavy-duty powered roller solution engineered for high loads and demanding duty cycles where durability is critical.

Best For

Pallet transport, drum handling, and heavy load transfers in manufacturing and shipping.

Common Loads

Pallets, metal bins, drums, containers, wheels, and dense industrial products.

  • Roller-to-roller chain drive delivers positive, synchronized movement under heavier loads.
  • Welded steel construction supports harsh environments and continuous operation.
  • Improves control at starts/stops to reduce product impact and skew.
  • Works well near strapping, wrapping, and pallet handling equipment.
Heavy DutyPallet TransportIndustrial Lines

Ball Transfer Table

Manual omnidirectional transfer table that gives operators full control to shift, rotate, and align loads quickly.

Best For

Manual work cells, pack stations, and transitions between conveyor directions.

Common Loads

Cartons, totes, flat-bottom containers, and products requiring manual orientation.

  • 360-degree movement reduces lifting and awkward repositioning.
  • Excellent for turning products before scanning, packing, or inspection.
  • Compact footprint makes it easy to insert between conveyor sections.
  • Ball spacing can be selected based on load size and base rigidity.
Manual Control360 Degree MovementWorkstation Friendly

Gravity Roller Conveyor

Simple, durable non-powered conveyor that moves loads by gravity or manual push with minimal upkeep.

Best For

Receiving lanes, shipping lanes, temporary staging, and low-cost line extensions.

Common Loads

Boxes, totes, and other stable items from light to heavy duty configurations.

  • No motor, controls, or wiring required for most applications.
  • Roller size and spacing can be matched to product dimensions and weight.
  • Fast to deploy and easy to reconfigure as workflows change.
  • Lower upfront and maintenance cost versus powered alternatives.
EconomicalNo Power RequiredFast Setup

Gravity Skatewheel Conveyor

Light-to-medium duty gravity option optimized for fast manual handling and flexible floor layouts.

Best For

Carton flow, pick modules, packing lines, and temporary or seasonal throughput spikes.

Common Loads

Small cartons, mailers, totes, and irregular packages needing close support.

  • Low rolling resistance helps move products with less operator force.
  • Close axle centers support smaller cartons better than wide roller spacing.
  • Can be field-cut or reconfigured for changing process paths.
  • Excellent low-maintenance option for non-powered flow lanes.
Flexible LayoutsLight/Medium DutyLow Maintenance

Lineshaft Driven Live Roller Conveyor

Energy-efficient powered conveyor for lighter unit loads with quiet operation and simple mechanical architecture.

Best For

Carton and tote transport in e-commerce, parcel, and packaging lines needing gentle accumulation.

Common Loads

Light cartons and totes; typical speeds from 25 to 120 FPM, up to 15 lbs per roller.

  • One motor can drive long conveyor runs, reducing power and controls complexity.
  • Urethane belt-driven rollers help lower noise versus many chain-driven systems.
  • Minimum-pressure accumulation helps prevent backline product damage.
  • Good fit for sortation feeds and order consolidation lanes.
