- Typical belt width
- For this class of equipment, belt widths commonly range from 200mm to 600mm, with 250mm being a standard size for lighter loads.
- Typical length
- Horizontal conveyors of this type are typically available in lengths from 1.5m to over 10m, with 2.7m being suitable for many intermediate transfer tasks.
- Power supply
- Units of this type commonly operate on a 3-phase industrial power supply (e.g., 400V, 50Hz) or sometimes single-phase for smaller models.
- Frame material
- For food processing, frames are typically constructed from stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316 grade) to ensure hygiene and corrosion resistance.
- Belt material
- Belts are commonly made from food-grade plastics such as PVC, PU, or modular plastic links, selected for durability and ease of cleaning.
- Adjustability
- Many units feature adjustable feet or height mechanisms to integrate with existing line heights, typically offering a range of 100-300mm.
- Throughput
- Throughput for this type of conveyor is highly variable, depending on belt speed, product size, and density, but can typically handle several hundred items or kilograms per hour.
