Conveyor System Packaging
& Export Crating

A conveyor ships as long, modular structures, drive units, rollers and belts, and the parts that fail are the bearings, the precision rollers and the belt itself. Section it wrong, coil the belt wrong or rack the frames and it arrives tracking off-line. BENZ Packaging preserves and crates belt, roller, chain and modular conveyor systems in ordered transport sections on site, certified for export to 100+ countries.

The Challenge

Long, Modular and Easy to Ruin in the Wrong Crate

Conveyors look simple, which is exactly why they are mishandled. They are long and modular, so they must be broken into transport sections without losing the order they reassemble in; their drive units and idler rollers ride on bearings that brinell under transit vibration and rust if they ride wet; and the belt, whether rubber, modular plastic or steel, takes a permanent set, cracks or corrodes if it is coiled, wrapped or stored against the manufacturer's requirement. Structural frames that are racked or stacked carelessly bend, and a bent conveyor frame tracks the belt off-line for the life of the installation.

BENZ crates a conveyor as an ordered kit, not a pile of steel. The system is split into logical sections and labelled to a reassembly map; drive units, gearboxes, rollers and chains are preserved with VCI and their bearings protected; belts are coiled or laid to the maker's requirement and protected against set and corrosion; and structural sections are braced with dunnage and steel reinforcement so frames cannot bend. Sections are bolted to heat-treated skids engineered to their length and weight, sealed against humidity for sea transit, and shipped to rebuild straight and true.

What We Protect on a Conveyor System

Structure, drives, rollers and belts are each handled to their own requirement.

Drive Units & Gearboxes
Drives and gearboxes drained or sealed, internals VCI-protected, and bearings secured against transit vibration.
Idler & Precision Rollers
Rollers preserved with VCI against corrosion and their bearings protected so they turn freely and true on arrival.
Belts
Rubber, modular or steel belts coiled or laid to the maker's requirement and protected against taking a set, cracking or corroding.
Structural Frames & Sections
Frames braced with dunnage and steel reinforcement and crated in sections so they cannot bend, preserving belt tracking.
Chains, Sprockets & Take-Ups
Chains, sprockets and take-up units preserved against corrosion and crated with their section, labelled for reassembly.
Controls, VFDs & Sensors
Drive controls, VFDs and sensors barrier-wrapped with desiccant and crated separately where heavy.

Conveyor Pre-Shipment Checklist

What a BENZ team completes and records before a conveyor system is crated.

  • Survey the system and divide it into logical transport sections
  • Label every section and map the reassembly order
  • Drain or seal drives and gearboxes; VCI-protect internals
  • Preserve rollers and chains and protect their bearings
  • Coil or lay belts to the maker's requirement and protect against set
  • Brace frames with dunnage and steel reinforcement against bending
  • Barrier-wrap controls, VFDs and sensors with desiccant
  • Bolt sections to heat-treated, ISPM-15 skids with rated lift points

How We Package a Conveyor for Export

On site at your works, by a BENZ team with all tooling, preservation materials and lifting equipment.

01

Survey & Sectioning

Assessment and division of the system into transport sections, labelled and mapped for ordered reassembly.

02

VCI & Roller Preservation

Drives, gearboxes, rollers and chains preserved with VCI vapour-phase inhibitor (MIL-PRF-3420H) and bearings protected.

03

Belt Protection

Belts coiled or laid to the manufacturer's requirement and protected against set, cracking and corrosion.

04

Frame Bracing & Barrier Wrapping

Structural sections braced with dunnage and steel reinforcement and sealed under barrier film with desiccant.

05

Seaworthy Skidding & Crating

Sections bolted to heat-treated, ISPM-15-stamped skids engineered to their length and weight, with rated lift points.

06

Loading, Documentation & Support

Container or flat-rack lashing, packing list and heat-treatment certificate, plus reassembly guidance at destination.
