A&B Lakewood Transfer Conveyor

• Transfer conveyors like this are commonly used for moving products between different stages of a production line.
• They are suitable for integrating with packaging machinery to transport items to filling, sealing, or labelling stations.
• Often found in warehousing and distribution centres for sorting and dispatch operations.
• Utilised in food processing for handling packaged goods or non-food contact items.

Typical throughput

Throughput for this class of conveyor is highly variable, depending on the product size, weight, and desired line speed. It can range from tens to hundreds of items per minute.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a standard industrial three-phase supply (e.g., 400V, 50Hz, 3-phase) or sometimes single-phase (230V, 50Hz) for lighter duties.

Motor power

Motor power for a conveyor of this size is typically in the range of 0.18 kW to 0.75 kW, depending on the load and speed requirements.

Belt material

Belts on transfer conveyors are commonly made from PVC, PU, or rubber, selected based on the application's specific requirements for grip, durability, and hygiene.

Frame material

The frame is typically constructed from mild steel (painted or powder-coated) or stainless steel for environments requiring corrosion resistance or strict hygiene.

Speed control

Many conveyors in this category feature variable speed control, often via an inverter drive, to allow integration with different production line speeds.

• What kind of products can this conveyor handle?

  This type of transfer conveyor is generally suitable for handling a wide range of discrete items, such as boxes, cartons, bags, or individual components, provided they are stable on the belt and fit within the belt width.

• Is installation complex for a used conveyor?

• What maintenance is typically required?

• Can the belt be replaced?

• What safety features should I look for?

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.
