Conveyor

Applications & Use Cases

• Moving raw ingredients between processing stages.
• Transporting finished products for packaging.
• Integrating with washing, sorting, or inspection lines.
• Buffering products between intermittent operations.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Varies significantly by belt width and motor power; typically designed for continuous flow of several hundred kilograms per hour for this class of equipment.

Power supply

Commonly 3-phase industrial power (e.g., 400V, 50Hz in the UK), though smaller units may use single-phase.

Belt material

Often food-grade PVC, polyurethane, or modular plastic for hygiene and durability in food environments.

Adjustable height range

Units with adjustable height typically offer a vertical travel of 300mm to 800mm, allowing integration with various existing lines.

Footprint

Dependent on length and width; a typical used unit might range from 2m to 6m in length and 0.5m to 1.5m in width.

Speed control

Many conveyors of this type feature variable speed drives for process flexibility.
