Have you ever been to the Dry Cleaners? If so, you’ll notice how the material (clothes or garments) are moved on an overhead conveyor? Well, that’s the most common type of Trolley Conveyor System.
Similar to a Chute Conveyor, Wheel Conveyor, Roller Conveyor, and Chain Conveyor, Slat Conveyor, Flat Belt Conveyor, Magnetic Belt Conveyor, Troughed Belt Conveyor, Bucket Conveyor, Vibrating Conveyor, Screw Conveyor, and Pneumatic Conveyor, Vertical Conveyor, Cart-on-Track Conveyor, and Tow Conveyor, a Trolley Conveyor or Overhead Trolley Conveyor is another transport equipment designed to move material efficiently from one location to another.

Ideally an Overhead Trolley Conveyor is great for,
- Unit + Overhead + No Accumulate
- Uses a series of trolleys supported from or within an overhead track
- Trolleys are equally spaced in a closed loop path and are suspended from a chain
- Carriers are used to carry multiple units of product
- Does not provide for accumulation
- Commonly used in processing, assembly, packaging, and storage operations
- Overhead Trolley Conveyors and Engineering using Trolleys as means of conveying. Includes I-Beam and Drop Forged Chain Conveyors.
I need a quote on a hanging inventory system that could be put within a vessel and secured during in climate weather to prevent shifting of the contents of said trolley system. The system would need to be roughly 90 ft in length, with a width at its maximum of 9 ft and preferably as little as 5ft minimum. The system could hopefully be able to be computer controlled to allow selection of specific contents with just a simple inventory control number being input. The system would need an initial set up of 5 to 10 trolleys but hopefully be able to be expanded up to 20 trolleys. Each trolley will need to be able to hold a maximum of 100lbs. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. However due to being out of our shop most mornings please try to call in the afternoons.
Thank you for your time.
