Indexing conveyors are designed to move products in a series of steps rather than a continuous flow, thus allowing time for other equipment on the line to carry out its function, such as filling or dosing, lidding, labelling, inkjet printing etc.

In many cases the operation is monitored by sensors which detect the position of objects on the belt and the operation and timing is controlled automatically.
