Where is the adaptability of the drum straight groove widely reflected
The drum straight groove belongs to the non powered gravity groove, with a freely rotating drum arranged at the bottom to turn sliding friction into rolling friction. Compared with ordinary steel plate grooves, it has stronger compatibility with materials, working conditions, docking equipment, site, and industry.

1. Strong adaptability to goods (materials)
Large weight span: from light 1 ‑ 2kg express packages and foam boxes to dozens of kg cartons and turnover boxes; By changing the specifications of the drum and the thickness of the frame, the load-bearing range can be adjusted.
Good bottom compatibility:
Paper boxes, woven bags, turnover boxes, plastic boxes, and some bagged goods with hard bottoms can all slide down; Ordinary smooth groove woven bags and soft bags are prone to jamming and material blockage.
The bottom surface is slightly uneven and the cardboard is wrinkled. It relies on the roller to roll and is not easily stuck or blocked.
Size coverage width: By adjusting the width of the chute and the spacing between the rollers, it is suitable for small packages to large-sized full box goods; As long as the bottom of the goods can simultaneously contact at least 2 rollers, they can be transported.
Friendly to the surface of goods: rolling friction, minimal friction loss, reduces carton abrasion and label scratches, suitable for packaging that is afraid of wear and tear.
Limitations: Extremely soft loose bags without a hard bottom are not suitable.
2. Good adaptability to slope and speed
Compared to steel plate chutes, the sliding resistance is smaller at the same slope; The slope is relatively small and not easy to jam goods; When the slope is too steep, damping rollers and deceleration rollers can be installed to control the sliding speed, taking into account both light and heavy goods, and avoiding the two pole problem of light items not moving and heavy items rushing.
The same set of chutes can accommodate mixed light and heavy goods, and the advantages of mixed package sorting in express e-commerce are obvious.
3. Wide compatibility with docking devices and systems
Can be connected to cross belt sorting, balance wheel sorting, drum conveyor lines, belt conveyors, and directly used as sorting grid outlet chutes; It can also be connected to loading, cargo baskets, floor unloading, and workstation unloading.
Modular structure, length, width, and tilt angle can be customized; It can be used for both short distance grid groove and long-distance floor drop cutting; It can be used standalone or integrated in bulk into large-scale automation systems.
Transition tongue plates can be used at the inlet and outlet to compensate for the height difference of the equipment and reduce jamming and collision.
4. Adaptability to environment and working conditions
Good tolerance to environments with high dust: The roller bearings are sealed, and dust, paper scraps, and debris are not easily stuck directly (compared to skateboard chutes, which are prone to dust accumulation and resistance surges). They can be used in environments with high dust in express delivery and factory workshops.
Material options: Carbon steel galvanized, stainless steel; Stainless steel version is selected for humid, cold chain, and mildly corrosive environments; Ordinary dry warehouses can use galvanized carbon steel to meet different anti-corrosion requirements.
There is no motor or electrical control, and there is no risk of electrical failure in dusty or humid environments.
5. Wide coverage of industry scenarios
Logistics and express e-commerce: sorting, sorting, sorting, sorting, loading and unloading;
Manufacturing factories: cutting materials at production line workstations and transporting turnover boxes;
Cold chain storage: sorting and transportation of foam boxes and cold chain boxes;
Pharmaceutical and food industries: Stainless steel version meets cleanliness requirements;
Multi story warehouse: gravity unloading and transportation between floors.
6. Installation and renovation adaptability
Modular structure, supports non-standard customization, and can also be adjusted in size due to limited space on site; The height of the bracket can be adjusted to adapt to different drop heights.
The renovation of old lines is convenient and can directly replace the original steel plate sliding groove without the need for large-scale changes to the civil engineering.
Easy maintenance, single drum can be replaced separately if damaged, without the need to replace the chute body as a whole.
