Typical Specifications

Typical throughput

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

Power supply

Typically 400V, 3-phase, 50Hz for industrial food processing environments, though smaller units may use single-phase.

Construction material

For this class of equipment, stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316 grade) is standard for frames and contact parts to meet hygiene regulations.

Belt material

Commonly food-grade PVC, PU, or modular plastic belts, selected for durability, ease of cleaning, and product compatibility.

Maintenance requirements

Regular cleaning, belt tension checks, and motor/bearing lubrication are typically required to ensure operational longevity and hygiene.

Footprint

The length and width of the belt define the primary footprint, with motor and drive components adding to the overall dimensions.
