stainless conveyor

• Transporting food products in processing lines.
• Moving pharmaceutical goods in cleanroom environments.
• Handling chemical products where corrosion resistance is critical.
• Transferring packaged goods in washdown areas.
• Integrating into automated assembly lines for hygienic material transfer.

Typical throughput

Varies significantly based on belt speed and product density, commonly ranging from a few kg/hour to several tonnes/hour for this class of equipment.

Power supply

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

Motor power

Commonly ranges from 0.18 kW to 1.5 kW for units of this size, influencing belt speed and load capacity.

Belt material

Often PU (polyurethane) or PVC (polyvinyl chloride) for food-grade applications, or modular plastic for heavier duty or specific product handling.

Frame material

This unit features a stainless steel frame, which is standard for hygienic and corrosive environments.

Speed control

Many units are fitted with a variable speed drive (VSD) for adjustable belt speed, crucial for process integration.

Footprint

For a unit with a 1100mm x 300mm belt, the overall frame length would typically be slightly longer than the belt, plus motor housing.

• What are the advantages of a stainless steel conveyor?

  Stainless steel offers excellent corrosion resistance, is easy to clean, and meets hygiene standards required in food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries.

• Can the belt speed be adjusted?

• Is this conveyor suitable for food contact applications?

• What maintenance is typically required for a used conveyor?

• Can the side guides be adjusted or removed?

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.
