Loma Stainless conveyor

• Used for transferring products between processing stages in food production lines.
• Suitable for moving packaged goods or raw ingredients within a facility.
• Often integrated with other machinery such as metal detectors, weighers, or packaging equipment.
• Utilised in bakeries, dairies, meat processing, and ready meal production for hygienic product movement.

Typical throughput

Throughput for this class of conveyor is highly variable, depending on product weight, size, and line speed, but typically ranges from several hundred to several thousand items per hour.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, which is standard for industrial applications in the UK.

Belt material

Intralox belts are commonly made from food-grade plastics such as polypropylene or acetal, known for durability and ease of cleaning.

Frame material

The stainless steel frame ensures compliance with hygiene standards in food processing environments and offers corrosion resistance.

Footprint

The overall footprint will be slightly larger than the stated belt dimensions, accounting for the motor, frame, and supports. Buyers should confirm exact dimensions with the seller.

Speed control

Many industrial conveyors feature variable speed control, allowing integration into diverse production lines. This is a common feature for units of this type.

• What are the benefits of an Intralox belt?

  Intralox modular plastic belts are known for their strength, hygiene, and ease of maintenance. They are often preferred in food applications due to their cleanability and resistance to wear.

• Is this conveyor suitable for washdown environments?

• Can the belt speed be adjusted?

• What kind of products can this conveyor handle?

• What maintenance is typically required for this equipment?

Buyers typically value conveyor systems for their reliability and longevity when well-maintained. Key considerations when purchasing used units include belt condition, motor functionality, frame integrity, and available spare parts. Industry sentiment emphasises the importance of verifying operational history and cleanliness standards, particularly for food handling applications. Common strengths include robust construction, relatively straightforward maintenance requirements, and cost savings versus new equipment. Reputable manufacturers' models tend to hold their value well and integrate readily into existing production lines.
