A material handling conveyor is a device that moves products from one location to another, such as in warehouses or manufacturing facilities. They are used for a variety of purposes, including:

• Transportation: Moving products like pallets and cartons from one location to another
• Accumulation: Allowing products to accumulate when needed
• Sortation: Directing products from one conveyor line to another 

Conveyors are used in many industries, including automotive and pharmaceutical. They are especially useful for transporting heavy or bulky materials. 

Here are some types of conveyors:

• Belt conveyors

  The most common type of conveyor, belt conveyors can transport materials horizontally or at an incline over long distances. 

• Oscillating conveyors

  Use the forward and upward oscillating motion of a metal trough to move materials in a continuous flow. 

• Chain conveyors

  Use a moving chain to transfer materials and can handle heavy products or operate in high temperatures. 

• Overhead conveyors

  Use unused overhead space in a factory or warehouse to move materials. They can move parts in a straight path, around a curve, or along a vertical rise or fall. 

Conveyor belts are typically made from a rubber or plastic compound combined with fabric material or steel cables.
