ABA 45 degree driven roller conveyor

• Changing the direction of product flow on a conveyor line within food processing plants.
• Integrating different conveyor lines or processing stations at an angle.
• Creating compact and efficient layouts in areas with space constraints.
• Handling packaged goods, trays, or containers requiring a change in orientation.

Typical roller width

For this class of equipment, roller widths commonly range from 300mm to 800mm, with 450mm being a common size.

Power supply

Units of this type typically operate on 3-phase industrial power, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with varying motor power depending on load requirements.

Throughput

Throughput capacity is highly dependent on product size, weight, and line speed, but these conveyors are designed for continuous flow.

Construction material

For food processing applications, frames are typically stainless steel, with rollers made from stainless steel or food-grade plastic.

Drive type

Driven roller conveyors commonly use geared motors, often with chain or belt drives to power the rollers.

Footprint

The footprint will be determined by the specific roller width and the radius of the 45-degree turn, requiring adequate space for installation.

• What types of products can this conveyor handle?

  This type of conveyor is suitable for items with a flat, stable base, such as boxes, trays, crates, and packaged goods. It is not typically used for loose or irregularly shaped items.

• Is this unit suitable for washdown environments?

• Can the speed of the conveyor be adjusted?

• What maintenance is typically required for a driven roller conveyor?

• How does a 45-degree conveyor differ from a 90-degree unit?

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.
