Grote stainless conveyor

• Transporting food products along a processing line.
• Moving packaged goods between different stages of production.
• Facilitating inspection or sorting processes for various materials.
• Integrating into automated systems for continuous material flow.

Typical throughput

Variable, depending on belt speed and product characteristics; commonly several hundred to a few thousand items per hour for this class of equipment.

Power supply

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

Construction material

Often stainless steel, suitable for hygienic environments and corrosion resistance.

Belt material

Typically food-grade belting, such as PU or PVC, chosen for durability and sanitation.

Mobility

Many conveyors in this category are designed to be mobile, featuring castors for easy repositioning within a facility.

Variable speed drive

Commonly integrated, allowing for adjustment of belt speed to match production requirements.

• What kind of products can this conveyor handle?
