- Typical throughput
- Throughput for this class of conveyor is highly variable, depending on product density and belt speed, but typically ranges from hundreds to several thousand kilograms per hour.
- Power supply
- Units of this type commonly operate on a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, which is standard for industrial equipment in the UK.
- Construction material
- For food processing applications, the frame and contact parts are typically constructed from stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316 grade) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.
- Belt material
- Belts are commonly made from food-grade materials such as PVC, PU, or modular plastic, selected based on product characteristics and operating temperature.
- Footprint
- The footprint of mobile elevating conveyors is relatively compact for their function, with the base typically occupying an area of around 1.5m x 1m, though this varies.
- Elevation range
- Elevating conveyors commonly offer a lift range of 500mm to 1500mm, allowing for flexible integration with various upstream and downstream equipment.
- Mobility
- Units designed for mobility typically feature lockable castors, allowing for easy repositioning within a facility.
