Slider bed conveyor is a style of belt conveyor that is ideal for inclines and declines, and typically carries medium to lightweight loads. Slider bed conveyor is almost identical to trash conveyors, except slider bed typically does not have sidewalls. This style of conveyor is great for transporting small items and loose product that tends to have trouble on roller conveyors.

Slider bed conveyor uses a return roller to run the belt along the flat steel bed, and because it only has a few moving parts it runs very quietly. They use a “rough” surface belt for inclines and declines for added grip instead of a friction surface belt. It also has the option of variable speed settings for added control and efficiency. Slider bed conveyors are ideal for manufacturing and distribution areas, and remote controls are available for additional control.
