At General Conveyor Inc, we go beyond building conveyor systems — we engineer complete, automated material handling solutions that bring robotics and conveyance together as one seamless system. Drawing on our in-house design expertise, we integrate industrial robots directly into the conveyor lines we build, delivering turnkey systems that are engineered, built, and commissioned as a single package.
Our team has direct experience integrating FANUC robots into robotic palletizing applications, coordinating end-of-line conveyor infeed, robot cell layout, gripper/end-of-arm tooling coordination, and safety guarding into one cohesive system. These areas include:
- Robotic palletizing and depalletizing — building or breaking down pallet loads at the end of a production or distribution line, synchronized with upstream and downstream conveyor speed and indexing
- Case and carton loading/unloading — transferring product between conveyor lines, pallets, or shipping containers
- Robotic sortation — combining vision or barcode-guided robotic picking with conveyor-based diverting and accumulation for high-throughput sorting
- Machine tending and line loading — feeding or unloading production equipment in sync with upstream conveyance
Whether you’re automating a single palletizing cell or integrating robotics across an entire production line, our approach is the same: one point of responsibility, from mechanical conveyor design and fabrication through robot integration, controls, and safety systems, to final commissioning on your floor. The result is a turnkey solution built to your throughput, footprint, and payload requirements — not a collection of separately sourced components you have to make work together.
