A&B Lakewood Transfer Conveyor

• Moving products between different stages on a production line.
• Transferring items from one conveyor system to another.
• Accumulating products temporarily before further processing or packaging.
• Integrating with other machinery for automated material handling.
• Used in food processing for gentle product transfer.

Typical throughput

Throughput for this class of equipment typically ranges from several hundred to several thousand items per hour, depending on product size and line speed.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on standard industrial voltages, typically 400V 3-phase, though single-phase options may exist for lighter duty models.

Belt material

Belts are commonly made from food-grade PVC, PU, or modular plastic, selected based on the application's hygiene and durability requirements.

Frame construction

Frames are typically constructed from stainless steel for hygiene-sensitive environments or painted mild steel for general industrial use.

Control system

Control systems commonly feature basic start/stop functionality, variable speed drives, and emergency stops.

Maintenance requirements

Maintenance typically involves regular belt tensioning, cleaning, and inspection of bearings and motor components.

• What is a transfer conveyor used for?

  A transfer conveyor is designed to move products from one conveyor line or processing stage to another, often bridging gaps or changing the direction of product flow.

• What does 'Sold as Seen' mean for this used equipment?

• Can this conveyor be integrated into an existing line?

• What are the typical safety features on this type of conveyor?

• How do I determine if the belt width and length are suitable for my products?

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.
