Typical Specifications

Typical throughput

Varies significantly based on product weight, speed, and line integration; typically designed for continuous flow.

Power supply

Unpowered (gravity or manual push) for this type of roller conveyor, though powered versions commonly use 3-phase industrial supplies (e.g., 400V).

Materials of construction

For food processing, units are typically constructed from stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316 grade) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Roller type

Commonly features free-spinning rollers, suitable for items with a flat, rigid base.

Footprint

The overall length and width are critical dimensions; for this unit, the overall length is 2600mm and roller width is 450mm.

Maintenance requirements

Typically low for unpowered units, primarily involving regular cleaning and occasional inspection of rollers for free movement and wear.

Suitable product types

Best suited for items with a stable, flat bottom that can bridge the gap between rollers, such as boxes, trays, or packaged goods.
