Known as the Go Anywhere Conveyor (photo), this unit uses cantilevered buckets that move vertically and horizontally and can turn any direction up to 90 deg. without having to transfer the load being conveyed, making it very flexible. This unique feature lets users fit the conveyor within their production facility instead of modifying their facility to accommodate the material handling system. The multi-axis capability is the result of its patented chain design and the cantilevered wedged shaped buckets that come together and overlap at the load station. The patented rack and pinion system assures full discharge with a 360-deg bucket rotation on selection and quick return to the upright position for maximum flexibility. — Gough Econ, Inc., Charlotte, N.C.
