Richards-Wilcox Conveyor designs and builds overhead enclosed track conveyor systems for manufacturing and distribution operations. The company emphasizes durability and efficiency, using the heaviest gauge track and a specially engineered chain pitch that can deliver higher throughput than competing overhead chain conveyors. Its solutions support manual push configurations as well as space-saving side-by-side layouts and can be paired with automation controls; the firm also offers system design simulations to validate performance and identify bottlenecks before installation.

Headquartered in Aurora, Illinois, the firm serves manufacturers seeking reliable, continuous material handling across distribution centers, finishing operations, and just-in-time assembly lines. With a history spanning more than 125 years, Richards-Wilcox operates as a longstanding provider of overhead conveyor systems designed for sustained production. A 2022 partnership with Omega Tool Corp to automate painting processes at Omega's Canadian facility is a notable recent development.
