Tong Engineering - 2014 Tong Engineering Conveyor

• Moving bulk agricultural produce such as potatoes, carrots, or onions within a processing line.
• Transporting aggregates or construction materials in a quarry or recycling plant.
• Handling packaged goods or components in a manufacturing or distribution facility.
• Feeding processing machinery with raw materials in food production environments.
• Transferring waste materials in recycling or refuse centres.

Typical throughput

For this class of equipment, throughput can typically range from 10 to 100 tonnes per hour, depending on belt width and speed.

Power supply

Commonly found on units of this type, a 400V, 3-phase electrical supply is typical, often with a 50Hz frequency.

Belt width

Typically, conveyor belts for such applications range from 400mm to 1200mm in width.

Construction material

Units of this type commonly feature robust steel construction, often with painted or galvanised finishes for durability.

Motor power

Motor power for agricultural and industrial conveyors typically ranges from 1.5kW to 7.5kW, depending on load and length.

Maintenance requirements

Regular lubrication of bearings, belt tension checks, and general cleaning are typically required for optimal performance.

• What type of materials can this conveyor handle?

  Tong Engineering conveyors are generally designed for handling a wide range of bulk materials, including root vegetables, aggregates, and various industrial goods. The specific belt type will determine suitability for particular products.

• Is this conveyor suitable for outdoor use?

• Can the speed of the conveyor be adjusted?

• What are the typical installation requirements?

• What spare parts are commonly needed for a used conveyor?

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.
