Phoenix (UK) - Conveyor 4.5m Long x 240mm

• Transporting raw ingredients between processing stages in bakeries or confectioneries.
• Moving packaged food items from production lines to packing areas.
• Handling delicate produce such as fruits or vegetables in preparation facilities.
• Integrating into automated systems for sorting or inspection of food products.
• Transferring waste products or by-products in food processing environments.

Typical throughput

Throughput for this class of equipment is typically determined by belt speed and product density, commonly ranging from 500 kg/hour to several tonnes/hour depending on application.

Power supply

Conveyors of this type commonly require a single-phase (230V, 50Hz) or three-phase (400V, 50Hz) electrical supply, with power consumption typically ranging from 0.37 kW to 1.5 kW.

Belt material

This unit features a Plastic PU (Polyurethane) belt, which is commonly used in food processing for its hygiene, durability, and resistance to oils and fats.

Frame material

The stainless steel frame is standard for food-grade conveyors, offering corrosion resistance and ease of cleaning.

Mobility

Being mobile on wheels, this conveyor offers flexibility for repositioning within a production facility.

Typical belt speed

Belt speeds commonly range from 0.1 m/s to 0.5 m/s, often adjustable via a variable speed drive.

Hygiene standards

Units with stainless steel frames and PU belts are typically designed to meet general food hygiene standards for easy washdown.
