Carton Unloading Conveyor for Carton Handling
A Carton Unloading Conveyor is a conveyor system designed to unload cartons, boxes, or packages from trucks, trailers, or containers efficiently and safely. It’s widely used in warehouses, logistics hubs, e-commerce fulfillment centers, postal facilities, and distribution centers, where speed and flexibility in material handling are critical.
Types of Carton Unloading Conveyor
A.Gravity Roller Unloading Conveyor
Our Gravity Roller Unloading Conveyor is a non-powered conveyor system designed for the manual or gravity-assisted unloading of cartons, boxes, or bags from trucks and containers.
- No power needed — boxes move by gravity on slightly inclined rollers.
- Lightweight cartons and short unloading distances.
- Low cost and easy to install.
- Extendable or flexible (accordion type).
- Suitable for docks and small warehouses.
- Material: Zinc-plated or stainless-steel rollers with adjustable legs.
B.Flexible Powered Roller Conveyor
Our Flexible Powered Roller Conveyor is a motor-driven, expandable conveyor system designed for efficient loading and unloading of cartons, bags, and parcels in warehouses, logistics centers, and distribution facilities.
- Powered rollers drive cartons automatically.
- Flexible (expandable and bendable) to adapt to truck layouts.
- Medium to heavy cartons, variable truck sizes.
- Extendable and retractable design.
- Adjustable height and length.
- Direction control (forward/reverse).
- Castor wheels for mobility.
- Drive: 24V DC motorized rollers or chain drive.
C.Telescopic Belt Conveyor (for Carton Unloading)
Our Telescopic Belt Conveyor is an extendable conveyor system specifically designed for efficient carton loading and unloading from trucks, containers, and trailers. It enables operators to easily transfer goods between the vehicle and the warehouse, minimizing manual handling and improving operational efficiency.
- Motorized extendable conveyor that can reach deep inside trucks or containers.
- Large-volume carton handling in logistics and courier hubs.
- Extendable sections (2–4 telescopic stages).
- Height adjustment to match dock or truck floor level.
- Variable belt speed (via VFD).
- Reversible operation (can also load cartons).
- Belt Type: PVC belt, smooth or grip surface.
D.Combination Carton Unloading System
Our Combination System of Carton Unloading integrates multiple types of conveyors—such as telescopic belt conveyors, flexible roller conveyors, and gravity roller conveyors—to form a complete and efficient solution for unloading cartons, parcels, and packages from trucks or containers.
- Telescopic belt conveyor + flexible roller conveyor.
- Telescopic section extends inside the truck → cartons discharge onto a flexible roller conveyor → directed to sorting area.
- Common in Amazon, DHL, FedEx, and e-commerce facilities.
