MCM Sidetrack Monorail Conveyor Systems – Heat Treatment

23rd September 2026

Heat treatment conveyors are used to transport products through manufacturing processes where elevated temperatures are an important part of production. Selecting the right conveyor system is essential to ensure reliable product movement while withstanding the operating conditions of the application.

MCM Sidetrack monorail conveyor systems provide an overhead conveying solution for demanding industrial environments. Designed to operate at temperatures of up to 250°C, the systems offer a practical option for applications requiring heat resistant conveyors and reliable product handling at elevated temperatures.

For applications where products need to be transported through a controlled process, an overhead conveyor can provide several advantages. Products can be suspended from pendants attached directly to the conveyor chain, allowing them to be moved continuously through different stages of a production line while making effective use of available floor space.

The MCM Sidetrack design incorporates a 90-degree rotation of the track and chain. This helps prevent contamination from the chain, such as lubricating oil, from falling onto the products being transported. This feature can be particularly useful where clean and controlled product handling is important.

A range of attachments can also be fitted directly to the chain, including continuous flight bars and spinner units for product rotation. This allows the conveyor system to be configured to suit different product handling requirements and production processes.

The MCM Sidetrack range includes the ST30, ST60 and ST100 conveyor systems, with pendant load capacities of 30Kg, 60Kg and 75Kg respectively. The minimum pitch varies between the different models, providing options for different product sizes and conveyor layouts.

MCM Sidetrack systems are suitable for heat treatment applications and can also be used in other demanding industrial environments, including paint finishing and applications where products need to be handled in clean conditions.

With their overhead monorail configuration, temperature capability and range of available attachments, MCM Sidetrack systems provide a flexible conveyor solution for applications where conventional conveying arrangements may not be suitable.
