Belt Conveyor

Applications & Use Cases

• Transporting raw ingredients such as grains, powders, or small food items between processing stages.
• Moving packaged food products along an assembly line for inspection, labelling, or packing.
• Facilitating the transfer of waste materials or by-products in food manufacturing environments.
• Integrating into automated systems for continuous product flow in bakeries, dairies, or snack food production.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment typically ranges from a few hundred kilograms to several tonnes per hour, depending on belt width and speed.

Power supply

Commonly found on units of this type is a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, though single-phase options exist for smaller units.

Belt material

For food processing applications, belts are typically made from food-grade materials such as PVC, PU, or rubber, compliant with hygiene standards.

Frame material

Conveyor frames are commonly constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and corrosion resistance in food environments, or painted mild steel for less demanding areas.

Speed control

Many units feature variable speed drives, allowing adjustment of belt speed to match production requirements.

Footprint

The footprint varies significantly; buyers should contact the seller for exact dimensions of this specific used frame.
