Carerra - Incline Conveyor – Carerra

Applications & Use Cases

• Elevating products between different levels in a production line.
• Feeding packaging machinery or processing equipment from floor level.
• Transporting bulk materials upwards for storage or further processing.
• Integrating into automated systems for continuous product flow.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment commonly ranges from 500 kg/hr to 5,000 kg/hr, depending on product density and belt speed.

Power supply

Units of this type typically operate on 230V single-phase or 400V three-phase industrial power, commonly with a 50Hz frequency in the UK.

Belt width

Common belt widths for incline conveyors are between 300mm and 800mm, influencing the maximum product size and throughput.

Incline angle

Typical incline angles range from 20 to 45 degrees, often with cleats or a high-friction belt to prevent product rollback.

Construction material

Frames are commonly constructed from mild steel (painted or powder-coated) or stainless steel, suitable for various industrial environments.

Footprint

The footprint is dependent on the overall length and height of elevation, requiring sufficient floor space for both the incline and horizontal sections.
