This switch is a heavy duty version of the regular LeFiell Automatic Switch. The
automatic mechanism operates either above the conveyor chain or to one side--out of the
way. All switching time is saved and there is no delay in feeding the conveyor.
The conveyor chain cannot come in contact with any part of the switch.
Bringing engineered automatic switching into use with the chain-driven moving conveyor
operations, the LeFiell Automatic Conveyor Switch further streamlines the most modern
packing plants, saving time and energy. Like the regular LeFiell Automatic Switch,
the Conveyor Switch is actuated by the weight and forward motion of the converging load
along either rail, closing one rail, opening the other. Constructed of rugged forged
steel, the switch is a complete unit with built-in track curves. It has a heavy
steel yoke which can be attached to beam support for extra rigidity. Available
with curve sloped 2-1/2" up or down (at no extra cost) to improve performance.
