New Bowtie Conveyor From TKF is Ideal for Handling Pipe and Other Cylindrical Products

Dec. 2, 2010 - PRLog -- CINCINNATI, OH — TKF, Inc. now offers custom bowtie conveyor systems that are designed to convey pipe and other cylindrically shaped products efficiently and safely within a small footprint.  Sometimes called a “V” roller, the trough shape of the roller allows the product to be conveyed while virtually eliminating the side-to-side movement associated with a round object.  

While each system is customized to each customer’s specific requirements, the driving mechanism can be roller-to-roller chain drive or TKF’s roller-to-roller PosiGrip belt drive.  

The trough style design accommodates a wide variety of widths and lengths, and can be used indoors and or adapted to be used outdoors in harsh environments.
