According to Webster’s dictionary, STANDARD means a level of quality or the norm. SIMPLE means being easily done, presenting no difficulty and being composed of a single element. These two words quickly define our catalog products at Alba Manufacturing in regard to CDLR (Chain Driven Live Roller), Turntables, Drag Chain and Transfer Conveyor. Often times, we hear a myth from the marketplace: "Alba only does custom, heavy-duty, foundry-type applications." NOT TRUE!
Our Standard CDLR, Turntables, Drag Chain, and Transfer Conveyors are designed around these two principles: STANDARD and SIMPLE.
