Conveyor Lines Two Tier Conveyor

Applications & Use Cases

• Used for efficient product transfer and accumulation in food production lines.
• Suitable for manual packing stations, allowing operators access to two levels of product.
• Often integrated into processing lines for sorting, inspection, or cooling stages.
• Can be utilised in bakeries, confectioneries, and ready-meal facilities for product movement.

Typical Specifications

Typical throughput

Variable, depending on belt speed and product type; commonly designed for continuous flow.

Power supply

For this class of equipment, a 3-phase electrical supply is standard, often 400V.

Construction material

Units of this type are typically constructed from stainless steel, suitable for hygienic environments.

Belt material

Commonly food-grade belting, such as PU or PVC, selected for durability and ease of cleaning.

Speed control

Variable speed drives are a common feature, allowing adjustment to suit production requirements.

Footprint

The two-tier design offers a space-saving solution compared to two separate single-tier conveyors of similar length.

Maintenance requirements

Regular cleaning and inspection of belts, bearings, and motor are typically required to ensure operational longevity.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What are the benefits of a two-tier conveyor system?

  A two-tier system maximises vertical space, allowing for two distinct product flows or a return path within a compact footprint. This can improve workflow efficiency and reduce floor space requirements.

• Is this type of conveyor suitable for washdown environments?

• Can the belt speed be adjusted independently for each tier?

• What kind of products can be handled by this conveyor?

• Are spare parts readily available for unknown manufacturer conveyors?
