Conveyor Technology

Efficient conveyor technology for a seamless material flow – from unit-load handling to fully automated lines.

What is conveyor technology?

Conveyor technology covers all systems that automatically move unit loads, bulk goods or workpieces within a production or logistics facility – from a simple roller conveyor to a fully networked conveying line. It connects processing stations, storage and shipping areas, forming the backbone of a continuous material flow.

Applications and industries

Conveyor technology is used in almost every manufacturing industry: in food production for the hygienic transport of sensitive products, in the building-materials industry for heavy panels and containers, in automotive supply for cycle-controlled material flow, and in logistics to connect order picking and shipping.

Depending on requirements, we combine roller conveyors, belt conveyors, chain conveyors and custom designs into a continuous conveying line precisely matched to your product range and cycle times.

What Tomasic does differently in conveyor technology

As a special-machine builder with experience since 1994, we don't supply conveyor technology as catalogue goods, but as an integrated part of your plant. We design, engineer and build every conveying section to match load weight, environmental conditions and existing plant technology — and support commissioning on site.

Turning Stations

Turning stations enable the precise alignment and redirection of conveyed goods within a production line. They connect different conveyor sections and allow a smooth change of direction without manual intervention.

Multi-Level Lifts

Multi-level lifts connect several production levels and enable the vertical transport of goods between different floors or heights. They are indispensable for compact multi-storey plants and maximise the use of available floor space.

Belt Conveyors

Belt conveyors gently transport unit loads, bulk goods or sensitive products over short and long distances. We match belt width, incline and material to your application.

Tomasic chain conveyors

Chain Conveyors

Chain conveyors are suited to transporting heavy loads in demanding industrial environments. Thanks to their high load capacity, they have proven themselves in the automotive, metal and wood industries.

Tipping Stations

Tipping stations are used for the controlled emptying or transfer of containers and bins. They enhance workplace safety and enable an ergonomic, automated material flow without heavy lifting.

Modular Plastic Belt Conveyors

Modular plastic belt conveyors – available with plastic or stainless steel links – are ideal for use in the food and dairy industries as well as in areas with strict hygiene requirements. They are easy to clean and extremely durable.

Roller Conveyors

Roller conveyors reliably move pallets, boxes and unit loads through your production – driven or as a gravity conveyor. We size them to match your load weight and cycle time.

Custom Conveyors

Custom conveyors are tailor-made solutions for specific material-flow requirements. From curved conveyors to centring stations and bespoke designs, we engineer systems that precisely fit your production needs.

Frequently asked questions about conveyor technology

Which conveyor technology suits my product?

It depends on the weight, shape and sensitivity of your goods: roller conveyors suit stable pallets and boxes, belt conveyors suit sensitive or irregularly shaped products, and chain conveyors suit particularly heavy loads. During the design consultation, we determine together which conveying technology fits your application.

Can conveyor technology be integrated into an existing production line?

Yes, new conveyor technology can generally be connected well to existing plants, provided transfer points and connection heights are coordinated. We assess on site how the new conveying section can be integrated into your existing line.

How long does planning and manufacturing a conveying line take?

The duration depends on the complexity and scope of the conveying line — from a few weeks for a single roller conveyor to several months for a fully automated, multi-stage system. We provide a concrete timeline after the initial design consultation.
