Overhead Systems That Free the Floor & Pace Production

Overhead conveyance is a J+H specialty. Power-and-free systems accumulate loads, switch and reroute product, and pace production speeds while keeping the floor clear — and J+H handles the full scope in-house: design, fabrication, controls, run-off, and installation by our own field crews. These case studies represent real installed systems for manufacturers in the industries we serve.

The overhead portfolio demonstrates proven capability across:

  • Unibilt® enclosed track & power-and-free systems
  • Heavy-duty Unibeam® I-beam conveyors for high-capacity loads
  • Inverted power-and-free loops for robotic & paint applications
  • Overhead finishing, paint line & evacuation loop systems
  • Hand-pushed trolley & assembly line overhead conveyance
