Friction Conveyor Systems
First conceived in 1985, NKC’s Friction Conveyor System (FCS) is now globally recognized as a “next generation” conveyance system. The FCS’s drive mechanism converts the driving force of a motor into a friction force that can be applied directly to a skid, carrier or pallet. This technology offers advantages to our customers that were not previously available in a single conveyor type. Some of these advantages include increased speeds, improved working environment, reductions in noise levels, contaminants and operating costs. This cutting-edge system is one more example of NKC’s long history contributing to the advancement of other industries.

Friction drive conveyor are cleaner and quieter systems that offers a smooth and continuous flow. Because of easy maintain, less energy consumption it is useful at many places. Friction drive conveyors can be used to carry the carrier where friction drives are not practical such as production areas, process booths, ovens, etc.
