What a great way to start off the year to be honored for Innovative Business Practices by the Cincinnati Clermont Chamber of Commerce. It is certainly a tribute to the entire body of work from our company over the last couple years and our level of commitment from customers, representatives and distributors. I think our President says it best talking about innovation in this industry.

“We are pleased that the Chamber of Commerce has recognized the outstanding efforts our employees have put forth over the last few years as we’ve worked hard to surpass our competition,” said David Dornbach, president of QC Industries. “This award recognizes the company’s commitment to innovation in the low profile conveyor industry.”

We have made a serious commitment to bring the most innovative conveyors and related products to this industry and will continue to do so. And as for the feather in our cap, we’ll take it!

Our new InnerDrive Conveyors are now available for order. These unique conveyors save space by putting a safe and efficient 24vdc drive motor inside the conveyor, all while maintaining our signature low profile frame height. They can reach speeds up to 60 FPM and loads up to 100 lbs. Each conveyor includes a variable speed control card that easily integrates with automation systems for “run on demand” applications, using inhibit/run controls from devices such as timers and photo-eyes. The card can be mounted either to the conveyor frame or in a QC Industries-supplied NEMA-12 control box.

We are excited to offer these conveyors as standard product. For more information and specifications, please visit our website. Contact our sales department at (513) 753-6000 or your local distributor or representative for additional information.

Our new Lube-for-Life Bearings are now standard equipment for all our conveyors. These bearings are a direct replacement for our previous bearings.

The unique Lube-For-Life Bearings promise reduced conveyor maintenance and increased bearing life. Their greaseless design makes the conveyor maintenance-free, eliminating the need to periodically lubricate the bearings and protects them from contamination with a permanently applied Micro-Poly Lubricant specially designed to meet the needs of our conveyors. The risk of product contamination by bearing grease has been completely eliminated.

Since they are a direct replacement, these bearings are also available to retrofit existing conveyors.

These bearings have been extremely popular since we introduced them as an option in September. One of our customers had problems with corn meal entering our old bearings and causing them to fail repeatedly. Since replacing those bearings with our new Lube-for-Life bearings they haven’t had a single bearing failure.
