Slideways Inc., a specialist in standard and custom plastic components for conveyor systems, will introduce a new high-temperature guide rail and installation services at PACK EXPO International 2026, taking place October 18–21 at McCormick Place in Chicago. Attendees can see the new solution and meet the Slideways team in Booth N-5127.
High Temp Guide Rail
Engineered for demanding conveyor and processing environments, the new product expands Slideways’ ability to support applications for elevated operating temperatures up to 500-degree F where wear, friction, and reliability are key considerations. Visitors will be able to learn how the solution fits both original equipment and existing production lines.
Installation Services Special Event
Industry expert Matthew Childress will be available, Monday, October 19th from 9 am – 12 pm in the Slideways booth to discuss retrofit and new-installation opportunities. He will work with attendees to identify practical ways to upgrade conveyor and machine systems, address installation challenges, reduce downtime, and extend the useful life of existing equipment.
Tom Sioui, CEO of Slideways, says, “The new high temperature guide rail fills an important gap in the market for bakery and heat tunnel applications, while installation services provide capacity and expertise for CPGs to maintain peak line performance.”
Slideways manufactures components including guide rails, conveyor components, belt guides, SlideTrax chain guides, extruded profiles, bearings, and complex custom-designed plastic parts. Its engineered plastic solutions can offer lower friction, reduced weight, corrosion resistance, and longer service life than many conventional metal alternatives, depending on the application.
Key customer benefits include:
· Fast access to standard and custom plastic conveyor components
· Bolt-on-ready parts that support efficient OEM assembly
· Reverse engineering from drawings or physical samples
· Material and application guidance for challenging environments
· Rapid delivery that helps reduce downtime and production disruption
