Incline Conveyor

Applications & Use Cases

• Transporting products between different floor levels or to elevated processing equipment.
• Feeding packaging machinery or automated assembly lines.
• Moving bulk materials like grains, powders, or small components.
• Loading and unloading vehicles or storage hoppers.
• Integrating into existing production lines to bridge gaps or change elevation.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Typically rated for light to medium duty, handling several hundred kilograms per hour, depending on belt width and motor power.

Power supply

Commonly requires a 3-phase industrial power supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, though single-phase 230V units are also found for lighter applications.

Belt material

Frequently features PVC, PU, or rubber belting, selected based on the material being conveyed and environmental conditions.

Incline angle

Typically adjustable or fixed between 15 and 45 degrees, with cleats or grip surfaces often present for steeper angles.

Footprint

Varies significantly with length and width; buyers should consider the available floor space and ceiling height for installation.

Frame construction

Often constructed from mild steel (painted or powder-coated) or stainless steel for hygiene-sensitive environments.
