Packing Station Conveyor Stainless Steel

• Facilitating manual packing of food products into cartons or cases.
• Integrating into end-of-line packaging systems for quality control and final assembly.
• Used in bakeries, confectioneries, and ready-meal production for organised handling.
• Providing a hygienic workstation for sorting and packing fresh produce or prepared foods.

Typical throughput

Variable, dependent on manual operator speed and product type; typically designed for continuous flow.

Power supply

Commonly 230V, single-phase, 50Hz, requiring a standard industrial plug.

Material construction

For food processing, units are typically constructed from 304-grade stainless steel for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Conveyor belt type

Often features a food-grade modular plastic or PU belt, suitable for washdown.

Adjustability

Many units offer height-adjustable feet and adjustable guides to accommodate various product and operator requirements.

Footprint

For this class of equipment, overall length can range from 1.5m to 4m, with widths typically between 400mm and 800mm.

• What maintenance is typically required for a packing station conveyor?

  Routine cleaning, belt tension checks, and lubrication of moving parts are generally required. Electrical components should be inspected periodically.

• Can this type of conveyor handle different product sizes?

• Is this equipment suitable for washdown environments?

• What safety features should I look for?

• What is the typical lifespan of a used packing station conveyor?

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.
