Incline Conveyor

Applications & Use Cases

• Transporting products between different floor levels or processing stages.
• Feeding bulk materials into hoppers, mixers, or packaging machinery.
• Moving items over obstacles or across production lines.
• Loading and unloading goods from vehicles or storage systems.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Varies significantly by belt width and motor power, typically ranging from light to medium duty loads for this class of equipment.

Power supply

Commonly 230V single-phase or 400V three-phase, 50Hz, depending on motor size and application.

Incline angle

Typically adjustable or fixed between 15 and 45 degrees, influenced by the product being conveyed and belt type.

Belt material

Often PVC, PU, or rubber, selected based on product characteristics, temperature, and hygiene requirements.

Footprint

Dependent on belt length and width; buyers should consider available space for both the inclined section and any horizontal lead-ins/outs.

Throughput

Influenced by belt speed and width, typically measured in items per minute or tonnes per hour for bulk materials.
