Next generation portable ergonomic conveyor system builds on 15+ years of performance to increase efficiency while reducing strain in warehousing environments

Three Belt Conveyor – A redesigned pivoting conveyor, with a 165lb capacity, will get even closer to box walls and enable operators to handle more packages without straining themselves. During testing, case rates soared to over 1,200 cases per hour.

Safety and Service Features – The Destuff-it 2.0 operates on a 120V power supply, reducing electrical hazards while simplifying installation and rentals. Additional safety features include emergency stops, safety sensors, improved lighting, and a new HMI operator interface, which also assists service technicians during troubleshooting.

Multiple Configurations – Two configurations are available. The DT200 includes an operator platform, lifting workers 30" from the floor, to help them ergonomically reach the top of a box wall within fully floor-loaded trailers. The DT100 saves space by excluding the operator platform, while still improving both ergonomics and productivity.

Attendees can see the Destuff‑it system on display at MODEX 2026 on April 13–16 at Booth B13124. Gorbel representatives will be on-hand to offer live product demos.
