What does the work actually look like? One week you're running time studies on a line to find where it's losing speed.

When your production line needs to keep moving, every transfer matters.

Delays, unnecessary manual handling, and inconsistent product flow can slow down an entire operation.

The Straight Incline Conveyor with 18" Nose-Over provides a reliable, controlled path for moving products from Point A to Point B, helping streamline material flow across processing, packaging, inspection, and transfer operations.

Built around your product, speed, layout, and application requirements, it delivers more than movementโ€”it supports a more efficient production process.

Reliable conveying. Efficient movement. Built for your process.

Need a conveyor for your application? Contact Chicago Metalcraft to discuss your requirements.

In food processing, equipment has to support more than production. Cleanability, durability, access, and day-to-day operation all matter in how equipment is designed and fabricated.

Chicago Metalcraft builds stainless steel equipment and components for food-processing applications, supporting projects from design through fabrication and assembly.

From conveyors and equipment frames to platforms, guards, and fabricated components, our team works around the application and operating environment.

Behind every weld is a skilled hand, precise technique, and attention to detail.

A quality weld is more than a clean appearance. It must deliver the strength, precision, consistency, and durability required by the application.
In industrial and food-processing environments, every weld contributes to equipment reliability, structural integrity, and long-term performance.

The real test of a weld isnโ€™t appearance. ๐ˆ๐ญโ€™๐ฌ ๐ก๐จ๐ฐ ๐ข๐ญ ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ฆ๐ฌ ๐ฐ๐ก๐ž๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฃ๐จ๐› ๐ ๐ž๐ญ๐ฌ ๐๐ž๐ฆ๐š๐ง๐๐ข๐ง๐ .

Heavy loads require more than just a stronger belt. They require the right drive strategy.

When loading conditions push a conveyor to its limits, distributing driving force across multiple points can help improve traction, maintain controlled belt movement, and support consistent material flow.

Because reliable material handling starts with engineering the conveyor around the application, not forcing the application to fit the conveyor.

Clean-looking isnโ€™t the same as hygienically designed.

Hygienic conveyor design goes beyond what you can see on the surface. Weld quality, cleanable construction, accessibility, material selection, and minimizing areas where water or product can collect all matter in demanding food-processing environments.

The details designed into the equipment can directly affect cleanability, sanitation, maintenance, and long-term performance.

Engineers and plant managers: Whatโ€™s the most overlooked detail when specifying a hygienic conveyor?
