Dekker Paktechniek Conveyor

• Transporting packaged food items between processing stages.
• Moving raw ingredients or finished products within a food production facility.
• Integrating with other machinery such as weighers, fillers, or packaging lines.
• Buffering products during temporary stoppages in a production flow.

Typical throughput

Throughput for this class of conveyor is highly variable, depending on product size, weight, and line speed. Units commonly achieve several hundred items per minute.

Power supply

Conveyors of this type typically operate on a 3-phase industrial power supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with smaller motors like the 0.12kW SEW unit drawing minimal current.

Belt material

Intralox belts are modular plastic, known for their durability, hygiene, and resistance to various food processing environments. They are suitable for both wet and dry applications.

Footprint

The footprint is determined by the belt dimensions and motor placement. A unit with a 1250mm x 200mm belt will require a similar length, plus space for the drive unit and access.

Operating speed

Operating speed is typically adjustable via a variable frequency drive (VFD) if installed, allowing for integration into diverse production lines. Speeds commonly range from a few metres per minute up to 30 m/min or more.

Hygiene standards

Conveyors for food processing are generally designed for easy cleaning, often meeting HACCP guidelines. Intralox belts are particularly noted for their cleanability.

• What are the advantages of an Intralox belt?

  Intralox modular plastic belts offer excellent hygiene, durability, and resistance to chemicals and temperature variations. They are also easy to repair and maintain, as individual modules can be replaced.

• Can this conveyor be integrated into an existing line?

• What kind of maintenance does a conveyor like this require?

• Is this conveyor suitable for washdown environments?

• What products can this conveyor handle?

Buyers typically value conveyor systems for their reliability and longevity when well-maintained. Key considerations when purchasing used units include belt condition, motor functionality, frame integrity, and available spare parts. Industry sentiment emphasises the importance of verifying operational history and cleanliness standards, particularly for food handling applications. Common strengths include robust construction, relatively straightforward maintenance requirements, and cost savings versus new equipment. Reputable manufacturers' models tend to hold their value well and integrate readily into existing production lines.
