ABB Incline Conveyor

• Used for elevating products between different processing levels or machinery.
• Commonly integrated into packaging lines to move items to filling or sealing stations.
• Suitable for transferring bulk materials or individual items in food processing environments.
• Applied in logistics and distribution centres for sorting and loading operations.

Typical throughput

Varies significantly based on belt speed and product type; commonly designed for continuous flow.

Power supply

Typically requires a standard industrial electrical supply, often 3-phase, commonly 400V.

Belt material

Often food-grade PVC, PU, or modular plastic, depending on the application and hygiene requirements.

Incline angle

Commonly adjustable or fixed between 15 to 45 degrees, depending on product stability and space.

Footprint

For this class of equipment, the footprint is primarily determined by the conveyor length and width, plus any support structure.

Maintenance requirements

Typically involves routine belt tension checks, motor lubrication, and general cleaning.

• What types of products can this conveyor handle?

  Incline conveyors are versatile and can handle a wide range of products, from packaged goods and raw ingredients to small components, depending on the belt type and cleat configuration.

• Is this unit suitable for food contact applications?

• What are the common wear parts on an incline conveyor?

• Can the speed of the conveyor be adjusted?

• What safety features are typically included?

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.
