Proseal - Conveyor Belt

Applications & Use Cases

• Transporting food products between processing stages, such as washing, cutting, or packaging.
• Moving raw ingredients from storage to initial processing points.
• Facilitating product inspection and sorting lines within food production facilities.
• Integrating with other machinery like depositors, ovens, or chillers to create continuous production lines.
• Handling packaged goods for final boxing or palletising.

Typical Specifications

Typical belt width

Commonly ranges from 300mm to 1200mm, depending on the product size and throughput requirements.

Typical length

For this class of equipment, lengths can vary significantly, typically from 1.5 metres for short transfers up to 10 metres or more for longer lines.

Power supply

Most industrial conveyors operate on a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with smaller units potentially using single-phase.

Belt material

Commonly food-grade PVC, PU, or modular plastic belting, selected for hygiene, durability, and resistance to oils or chemicals.

Frame material

Typically constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and corrosion resistance in food processing environments.

Speed control

Many units feature variable speed drives (VSDs) for precise control over product flow, typically adjustable via a control panel.

Throughput

Highly dependent on belt speed, width, and product characteristics, but units of this type are designed for continuous, high-volume material handling.

Hygiene features

Units often include features such as open frame designs, quick-release belts, and wash-down capabilities to meet food safety standards.
