ENE Two Tier Conveyor

Applications & Use Cases

• Transporting packaged goods between processing stages in bakeries or ready-meal facilities.
• Moving raw ingredients or semi-finished products in a multi-stage food production line.
• Facilitating cooling or drying processes where products need to be spread across multiple levels.
• Optimising floor space in food processing plants by utilising vertical conveying.

Typical Specifications

Typical throughput

Varies significantly based on product size and belt speed, commonly ranging from 500 kg/hr to 2000 kg/hr for this class of equipment.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V, 50Hz in the UK.

Construction material

Food-grade stainless steel is standard for hygiene and durability in food processing environments.

Belt material

Typically food-grade PVC, PU, or modular plastic belts, chosen based on product characteristics and temperature.

Footprint

For a unit with a 1500mm length, the footprint would be approximately 1.5m x 0.5m, plus motor housing, offering efficient use of space due to its two-tier design.

Speed control

Many units are equipped with variable speed drives for flexible integration into production lines.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

  Two-tier systems maximise vertical space, allowing for two independent product flows or processing stages within a smaller footprint. This can improve line efficiency and reduce floor space requirements.

• Is this conveyor suitable for washdown environments?

• Can the speed of each tier be controlled independently?

• What kind of products are best suited for this conveyor?

• What maintenance is typically required for a used conveyor of this type?
