Ultimate Flexibility and Precision for Product Handling & Guidance
When it comes to maintaining efficiency and precision in production lines, proper product guidance is essential. The Span Tech EZGUIDE Conveyor Guide Rails Add-On offers a highly flexible, durable, and easy-to-use solution for managing product flow on your conveyor system. Designed to adjust quickly without the need for tools, the EZGUIDE system is perfect for operations requiring frequent changeovers or handling diverse product types and sizes.
Enhanced Safety Features:
The most notable feature of the EZGUIDE™ conveyor guide rail system is it does not have any protruding brackets or rods which could be a major safety hazard. Traditional conveyor guide rails use a solid-mounted rod to mount their guide rail. When the rail is adjusted to its “retracted” position, these rods stick out from the sides of the conveyor, becoming a place where someone can easily get their clothes or other body parts caught. The EZGUIDE™ system does not have any mechanical components which protrude from the sides of the conveyor during adjustment. All the mechanics are done without the need to protrude past the conveyor, keeping everything safe for those walking close to the conveyors.
Conveyor Guide Rails Adjustable Through Curves:
Another feature of the EZGUIDE™ conveyor guide rails is it is designed to remain adjustable through curves. That is, the radius of the guides can change as the guide width is increased/decreased in the curve. While there are many traditional guide rail systems which can be made to adjust their width in straight sections, there are very few that can truly be adjustable through a curved portion of conveyor. The reason is because changing the radius of a section is difficult – the guides must bend, and the length of the guide has to increase/decrease as the radius is changed. EZGUIDE™ conveyor guide rails handle both of those problems with its unique design.
EZGUIDE™ Conveyor Guide Rails Available in 2 options:
- Fixed- This option provides a basic fixed-width guidance solution for single-width products and/or safety concerns (such as overhead conveyor installations).
- Manual Adjustment- This is the entry-level system which is adjusted by manually unlocking the guides and positioning the guide rails by hand. This is very similar to almost all other guide rail systems on the market.

Features & Benefits
Tool-Free Adjustability: EZGUIDE Conveyor Guide Rails are designed for quick and easy adjustments without the need for any tools. With a simple pull of a lock tab, operators can reposition the guide rails to accommodate different product widths and shapes. This feature is ideal for facilities with a high-mix of products or frequent product changeovers.
Enhanced Safety for Operators: The tool-free adjustability and non protruding rods of the EZGUIDE system minimize the risk of injury for operators during adjustments or maintenance, creating a safer work environment and enhancing overall employee satisfaction.
Improved Product Handling and Quality: With its stable and precise guidance, the EZGUIDE system ensures consistent product positioning and flow. This reduces the likelihood of product damage or misalignment, resulting in improved product quality and fewer operational issues.
Flexibility Across Multiple Applications: The EZGUIDE system’s adaptability to various product sizes and conveyor types makes it a versatile addition to any production line. It can be used across a wide range of industries, including food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, packaging, and more.
Cost-Effective Solution: With its low maintenance requirements, durable construction, and tool-free adjustability, the EZGUIDE Conveyor Guide Rails Add-On offers a cost-effective solution for enhancing product handling and efficiency. Its long service life and reliable performance provide an excellent return on investment.
Compatibility with Various Conveyor Types: EZGUIDE conveyor guide rail is compatible with different types of Span Tech conveyors, including straight, curved, and incline conveyors. EZGUIDE can also be retrofitted for existing conveyors. This versatility allows you to implement consistent product guidance throughout your entire production line.

“It made our life a whole lot simpler and easier” when speaking about EZGUIDE Adjustable Guiderail
SpanTech’s EZGuide rail system has greatly improved change over times on our bottle filling line. We fill a wide range of bottle sizes and styles. The EZGuide system makes it easier and quicker to adjust between larger and smaller containers. One great feature is the lack of protruding rods from the sides of the conveyors. We are looking at installing this rail system on more filling lines in the near future.
I feel like Span Tech offered us more diversity, custom conveyors, especially for the products that we run and how we run them.
The sales and service personnel at Span Tech are always very professional and helpful throughout the entire process, from design phase, quoting, order processing and delivery of equipment. Quality equipment, professional service and knowledgeable personnel are why Arr-Tech’s choice for conveyor systems will always be Span Tech.
Paradise Tomato Kitchen has used Span Tech conveyors for our sanitary food pouch conveying systems for many years. These sanitary conveyors have provided the best cost of ownership, or the lowest net present value, of any processing conveyors we have used in our food manufacturing plants. These conveyors are easy to widen, lengthen or design for curves and angles to convey our flexible pouches between unit operations.
The quality of this product speaks for itself. Where the difference lies is in the quality of the organization. The whole Span Tech organization – Sales, Engineering, Service – works to serve customers’ needs, not just sell conveyors.
