- Typical throughput
- For this class of equipment, throughput can vary significantly based on product type and belt speed, often ranging from hundreds of kilograms to several tonnes per hour.
- Power supply
- Units of this type commonly operate on 3-phase industrial power, typically 400V, 50Hz, with motor ratings commonly between 0.18kW and 1.5kW.
- Construction material
- Food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) is standard for components in contact with food, ensuring hygiene and corrosion resistance.
- Belt material
- Belts are typically made from food-grade PVC, PU, or modular plastic, selected based on product characteristics and temperature requirements.
- Mobility
- Many stainless conveyors are designed to be mobile, featuring lockable castors for flexible placement within a facility.
- Cleaning and maintenance
- Designs typically prioritise ease of cleaning, often featuring open frames and quick-release belts to facilitate washdowns.
- Safety features
- Common safety features include emergency stop buttons, belt guards, and motor overload protection.
