 | | CGR and Handling Equipment
The company was founded in 1947, precisely to meet heavy demand from the materials handling market.
Conventional bearings often prove poorly suited for equipping conveyor platforms. CGR can come up with innovative designs which combine several functions (guides, lateral adjustment, etc.) and reduce the number of parts required by the customer, thus leading to real savings over the lifetime of the product. Furthermore, the working life of some parts is greatly extended.

For overhead handling, CGR equips tower cranes and conveyors for handling heavy materials in the automobile and iron and steel industries, as well as light materials for the clothing industry.
The company has implemented original solutions for the specific problems facing abattoirs-heavy loads, manual handling, temperatures ranging from -40° to +150° C, heavy corrosion and so on. |

For handling loads on the ground, CGR can design ball transfer units, rollers and bearings that can be used in floor conveyors, fork-lift and pallet trucks and unit-load transporters.
