Conveying Parts Conveyor Load Zone Solutions

Control the Chaos at the Load Point

Superior’s Load Zone Solutions are designed to tame the toughest part of your conveyor...the transfer point. Engineered to absorb impact, control spillage, and stabilize the belt, these conveyor load zone systems protect your equipment and keep material moving where it should.

From impact beds and slider cradles to sealing systems and skirting, each component works together to create a smoother, cleaner, and safer loading zone. Less cleanup, less downtime, and longer belt life add up to a more efficient operation from the moment material hits the belt.
