Thornel Associates, Inc. delivers reliable industrial conveyor systems to keep materials moving efficiently. From cost-saving gravity conveyors to heavy-duty power roller conveyors, we offer equipment and expertise to match the demands of manufacturing, distribution, and storage facilities.
Gravity Conveyors
Gravity conveyors use the force of gravity or manual push to move items along a path, eliminating the need for motors. They are an affordable and dependable choice for many facilities, especially in warehouses, packaging areas, and assembly lines.
Available in roller or skatewheel designs, gravity conveyors are simple to install and easy to maintain. They’re ideal for operations that require efficient, low-cost product movement.
Belt and Incline Conveyors
Belt conveyors offer smooth, quiet movement, making them perfect for products that need gentle handling. Thornel provides three belt conveyor styles to suit different materials and operational needs.
Incline conveyors allow goods to move between different levels within a facility without disruption. This is especially useful for multi-level operations or mezzanine storage areas. When needed, belt and incline conveyors can be part of a sortation conveyor setup, directing products to specific locations within a production or distribution process.
Power Roller Conveyor
When the job calls for moving heavier loads or operating continuously, power roller conveyors deliver the performance you need. Available in belt-driven and chain-driven designs, these conveyors are well suited for manufacturing plants, distribution centers, and high-volume shipping lines.
Power roller conveyors can also be integrated into sortation conveyor systems for operations that need to automatically route products based on order requirements or processing stages.
Parts Conveyor
Parts conveyors are built for transporting small components or materials between work areas or facility levels. Their portable design allows them to be set up quickly for temporary use or kept in place for ongoing operations. These conveyors are compact, efficient, and ideal for assembly environments or product packaging stations.
Conveyor Accessories
Thornel offers a variety of accessories to improve safety, functionality, and flexibility. Options include side rails, guides, diverters, and pop-up wheels. These can be added to new or existing systems to increase performance and adapt to changing operational needs.
