Slat Conveyors
James Brinkley Company Slat Conveyors are the workhorse of the pulper feed industry. They are designed for heavy, abusive service. It is common to drive lift trucks onto the load area, drop bales or rolls from a height, or shove a load of bale sideways onto the conveyor. No other type of conveyor can take as much abuse. We can provide units with up to 2500 lbs./ft of length load capacity at over 10’ slat width. With the Brinkley Slat Conveyor design, inclination changes are easy to do.
