Pallet Handling Products
The X65P, X85P, and XKP systems are tailored for pallet handling, featuring components like pallets, locating stations, and transfer stations for seamless pallet transfer.

Modular Plastic Belt Conveyors
WL and WK conveyors handle bulky or soft products, with belt widths from 150 mm to 1200 mm, suitable for large boxes and soft bags.

Conveyor System Features and Applications
- X45, XS, X65, X85 Systems: Compact for small, light items like pharmaceutical bottles and cosmetics.
- XH, XK Systems: For larger, heavier items such as ball bearings and electric motors.
- X180, X300 Systems: For large items and soft packages like detergent powder and tissue rolls.

Stainless Steel Conveyor Systems
These systems are easy to clean and chemical-resistant, ideal for food processing and pharmaceutical industries, and integrate with aluminium systems.

Conveyor Accessories
Includes modular, adjustable guide rail components and support structures for various product widths.

Conveyor Comparison and Technical Data
Includes a comparison chart detailing chain widths and load capacities, with components like drive units and guide rails.

Structural Systems XC/XF/XD
Features modular aluminium beams with T-slots, offering a standard component assortment for applications like frameworks and machinery.

Application Areas
Applicable in frameworks, workbenches, enclosures, and automation units. Systems include:
- XC: For heavier frameworks, based on a 44 mm module.
- XF: For compact enclosures, based on a 30 mm module.
- XD: For light automation, based on a 22 mm module.

Components Overview
Details components like beams, connectors, and motion components, with specifications and applications.

Technical Data – Conveyors
Outlines specifications for drive units, chain tension, and material selection, with equations for motor output and chain tension.

Chain Material and Specifications
Details materials like acetal resin (POM) for chain links, with strength and temperature resistance values.

Safety and Design Considerations
Emphasizes safeguarding pinch points, using guards and warning labels, and proper design to minimize risks.

Special Considerations
Guidelines for handling drive units with slip clutches, noting they protect equipment but are not safety devices.

Safety and Accessibility
Drive units must maintain slack, and chains should not be visible below side plates. Openings at end rollers pose risks, requiring inaccessibility during operation.

Intermediate and Catenary Drive Units
Areas near chain return loops should be inaccessible during operation.

Bend Drive Units and Idler Units
Drive wheels and openings at idler rollers should be inaccessible, with guarding as needed.

Cleated Chains
Require careful safety consideration due to pinch points, with generous guarding and operator access for trapped products.

Maintenance
Ensure guarding remains secure, with performance reviews prioritizing safety. Maintenance should be by competent persons familiar with FlexLink equipment.

Control System
Read equipment documentation before operation or maintenance. Contact FlexLink for safe operating procedures.

System Maintenance
Performed by competent persons, with a run-in period of 2-3 weeks. Chain elongation should be checked every 3-6 months.

Non FlexLink Equipment
Maintain according to their manufacturer's instructions.

Safety Considerations
Before maintenance, switch off electricity, lock motor switches, disconnect power, and inform staff. Do not climb onto equipment.

Product overview Standard aluminium conveyor systems X85 Standard conveyors X45, X45H, XS, X65, X85, XH, XK, X180, X300 Together, FlexLink's standard conveyor product lines cover a wide range of applications. These multiflexing conveyor systems use plastic chains in many configurations. The chain design permits horizontal as well as vertical change of direction. Chain widths range from 43 mm up to 295 mm, for product widths up to 400 mm. Each system consists of a wide range of modular components which can be fitted using simple hand tools. X85P XH XK XKP X180 Pallet handling products (X65P, X85P, XKP) Catalogue sections X65P/X85P/XKP contain special products for pallet handling, including pallets, pallet locating stations, pallet stop cylinders and pallet transfer stations. The systems are based on conveyor components from the standard conveyor lines. The pallet handling system also includes divert/merge devices for easy transfer of pallets between conveyors. Modular plastic belt conveyor WL The Modular plastic belt conveyor is designed to transport bulky or soft, pliable, ready-packed products which call for the stable support of a wide chain. The belt conveyor is suitable for applications that handle large cardboard boxes or products in soft plastic bags, such as detergent powder, wrapped tissue paper rolls, food products, personal care products and other large products. Modular plastic belt conveyor WK The modular belt conveyor is available in widths from 150-1200mm and is suitable for handling products from card board boxes to mechanical parts like bearings and sprocket wheels Standard aluminium conveyor systems
