With the requirement for larger, more durable carrying systems that incorporate a flexible solution in order to satisfy the needs of industrial applications, the garland system was created.

Garland units advantages versus rigid trough idlers are as follows:

• Increased Carrying Capacity
  : Rigid conveyors (exceeding 100 meters) will settle the conveyed material to a flatter profile, lowering the maximum capacity
• No Training Idlers
  : Since the garland unit is at rest in its normal trough position, eccentrically loaded belts will move to its rest position, aligning the load and belt at the same time.
• Longer Belt Life
  : Flexibility and ability to be loaded off center provide a smoother, less jarred flow of material.
  : No requirement for training idlers means belt edges are saved abuse from guide roll units.
