QINGDAO, China — September 24, 2026 — SunAura Machinery, a manufacturer of end-of-line packaging equipment, has expanded its conveyor product line with ten new modular conveyor configurations. The expanded range covers belt conveyors, motorized roller conveyors, gravity roller conveyors, chain-plate conveyors, and telescopic flexible conveyors — giving customers a wider selection for connecting packaging equipment across factory floors.
The conveyor expansion responds to customer demand for a single supplier that can deliver both packaging machines and the material handling equipment that connects them. Previously, customers often sourced conveyors from separate vendors, leading to integration headaches and mismatched speed synchronization. SunAura’s expanded line means the entire end-of-line system — from case erector to palletizer — can be designed, manufactured, and commissioned by one supplier.
New Conveyor Models
The expanded conveyor lineup includes ten standard configurations:
| Model | Type | Max Load | Typical Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| TR-100 | Motorized roller conveyor | 50 kg/m | Cartons, boxes, totes between packaging machines |
| TR-200 | 90-degree turning roller conveyor | 40 kg/m | Line direction changes, corner transfer |
| TR-300 | Gravity roller conveyor | 30 kg/m | Downhill transport, accumulation, shipping lanes |
| TR-400 | Telescopic gravity roller | 25 kg/m | Truck loading, flexible length extension |
| TR-500 | Motorized telescopic roller | 40 kg/m | Truck loading/unloading powered by motor |
| TR-600 | Pneumatic push roller conveyor | 50 kg/m | Product diversion, lane changing, sorting |
| TR-700 | Flexible skate-wheel conveyor | 20 kg/m | Temporary packing stations, seasonal surge capacity |
| TR-800 | 90-degree chain-plate conveyor | 60 kg/m | Heavy cartons, bottles, round containers |
| TR-900 | Chain-plate conveyor (bottles) | 50 kg/m | Beverage bottles, jars, cylindrical products |
| TR-1000 | Belt conveyor | 70 kg/m | General-purpose, irregular shapes, bags |
Why Conveyors Matter in End-of-Line Packaging
Conveyors are the connective tissue of any packaging line. A packaging machine that runs at 30 meters per minute upstream becomes a bottleneck if the downstream conveyor runs at 15 meters per minute. Conversely, a conveyor that runs too fast causes product pile-ups, jams, and damaged goods. Getting the conveyor speed, height, and transition points right is as important as selecting the packaging machines themselves.
Traditionally, packaging machine manufacturers referred customers to third-party conveyor suppliers. This created a coordination gap: the packaging machine company designed their equipment for a certain mounting height, while the conveyor company built to a different standard. The result was mismatched transfer points, product jams at joints, and finger-pointing when something went wrong. SunAura’s in-house conveyor line eliminates this gap by designing both machines and conveyors to a unified set of interface standards.
Engineering Highlights
According to the SunAura engineering team, the expanded conveyor line shares a common modular design platform:
- Modular frame construction: sections bolt together on-site, reducing installation time. Standard lengths are 1,000mm, 1,500mm, and 2,000mm; custom lengths available on request.
- Variable speed drives: all motorized conveyors come with gear motors and VFD speed control, allowing synchronization with upstream packaging equipment.
- Stainless steel options: food-grade and pharmaceutical versions use 304 stainless steel frames and food-grade belts.
- Side guides and transfer plates: adjustable side guides handle cartons from 100mm to 600mm width. Transfer plates ensure smooth product transition between conveyor sections.
- Quick-leg leveling: adjustable feet with locking nuts allow fast installation on uneven factory floors.
“Customers kept asking us if we could supply the conveyors between our packaging machines,” says the SunAura product manager. “We used to refer them to third-party conveyor suppliers, but then we would get calls about speed mismatch, mounting height issues, and product jams at the joints. By bringing conveyor manufacturing in-house, we control the entire interface — height, speed, and product transition — and the customer deals with one supplier.”
Applications Across Industries
The expanded conveyor line serves several customer segments:
Food and beverage: motorized roller and chain-plate conveyors connect fillers, cappers, labelers, and case packers. Stainless steel frames meet food hygiene standards. The chain-plate conveyor (TR-900) is designed specifically for glass and PET bottles on beverage lines.
E-commerce fulfillment: flexible skate-wheel conveyors (TR-700) provide temporary packing stations that can be reconfigured for peak season. Telescopic conveyors (TR-400, TR-500) speed up truck loading and unloading.
Manufacturing and industrial: belt conveyors (TR-1000) handle irregular shapes and heavy parts. Gravity roller conveyors (TR-300) provide accumulation lanes downstream of packaging equipment.
Pharmaceutical and cosmetics: stainless steel belt conveyors with clean-in-place design connect filling machines, cappers, and cartoning equipment. Sanitary design meets GMP requirements.
Integration with Packaging Lines
The expanded conveyor line is designed to work seamlessly with SunAura packaging equipment. Standard mounting heights are 750mm (adjustable ±50mm) to match case erectors, carton sealers, strappers, and palletizers. Speed ranges from 5 to 30 meters per minute, adjustable via VFD.
For complete end-of-line systems, conveyors are integrated with case erectors, carton sealers, strapping machines, and palletizers into a single coordinated line. The line speed is synchronized across all machines — the conveyor feeds product at the exact pace the downstream equipment can handle. For more information, see our turnkey packaging line solutions.
Availability
All ten conveyor models are available for ordering immediately. Standard configurations ship in 10–15 working days. Custom lengths, special widths, and stainless steel versions have 3–4 week lead times. CE certification documentation is provided for all export units.
Conveyors connect every piece of end-of-line equipment — from case erectors and carton sealers to strapping machines and robotic palletizers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the standard mounting height for SunAura conveyors?
Standard mounting height is 750mm from floor to carrying surface, adjustable ±50mm via leveling feet. This matches the mounting height of SunAura case erectors, carton sealers, strappers, and palletizers. Custom heights are available on request.
Can I order conveyor sections individually, or only as a complete line?
Both. Customers can order individual conveyor sections to connect existing equipment, or purchase a complete turnkey line with layout design. Standard sections ship in 10–15 working days; custom layouts with engineering drawings take 3–4 weeks.
What motor and speed options are available?
All motorized conveyors use gear motors with VFD speed control. Standard speed range is 5–30 meters per minute. Higher-speed versions (up to 60 m/min) are available for high-volume lines. Motor power ranges from 0.2kW for light-duty belt conveyors to 1.5kW for heavy-duty chain-plate conveyors.
Are stainless steel conveyors available for food-grade applications?
Yes. Food-grade and pharmaceutical versions use 304 stainless steel frames, food-grade PVC or PU belts, and open-frame design for easy cleaning. These are widely used in dairy, bakery, and prepared food production lines.
How do I specify the right conveyor type for my product?
Start with your product: weight, dimensions, shape, and surface. Light cartons work on gravity roller conveyors. Heavy bags work on belt conveyors. Bottles and cylindrical products need chain-plate conveyors. Irregular shapes need belt conveyors. If you are unsure, send us your product dimensions and throughput requirement, and our engineers will recommend the right configuration.
