NNP Stainless Conveyor

Applications & Use Cases

• Transporting raw ingredients such as vegetables, fruits, or meat cuts between processing stages.
• Moving packaged food products along a production line for labelling, weighing, or sealing.
• Facilitating the transfer of bulk dry goods like grains, pulses, or snacks within a facility.
• Integrating into washing, drying, or cooling lines for continuous product flow.
• Handling waste products or by-products in a hygienic manner within food processing environments.

Typical Specifications

Typical throughput

Throughput for this class of conveyor is highly variable, depending on product density, belt speed, and loading method. Buyers should consult the seller for specific performance data.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz in the UK, for motor operation.

Construction material

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

Belt type

Intralox belts are modular plastic belts, commonly used in food processing for their durability, ease of cleaning, and resistance to chemicals and temperature variations.

Mobility

Many stainless conveyors are designed to be mobile, often fitted with castors, allowing for flexible placement and easy cleaning access.

Footprint

The footprint of a conveyor is determined by its belt dimensions and frame. For this unit, the belt is 1700mm long by 300mm wide; the overall frame dimensions will be slightly larger.
