Advanced - Sharp Incline Conveyor System with Scales

• Used for elevating products between different processing stages.
• Suitable for integrating weighing operations directly into a production line.
• Applied in packaging lines where product weight needs to be verified before sealing.
• Utilised in sorting operations based on product weight.

Typical incline angle

Commonly ranges from 20 to 45 degrees, depending on the product and application.

Belt material

Typically food-grade PVC or PU, suitable for various product types and hygiene standards.

Weighing accuracy

For this class of equipment, accuracy is generally within +/- 0.1% to 0.5% of the full scale, depending on the load cell and control system.

Power supply

Commonly 400V, 3-phase, 50Hz for industrial applications in the UK, with smaller units potentially using 230V, 1-phase.

Throughput

Varies significantly based on belt width, speed, and product characteristics; buyers should confirm with the seller.

Footprint

Dependent on the length and height of the incline; typically requires sufficient floor space for the base and discharge point.

• What types of products are suitable for this conveyor?

  This type of conveyor is generally suitable for a wide range of free-flowing and packaged goods, including powders, granules, small components, and boxed items. Suitability depends on belt type and cleat configuration.

• How is the weighing scale integrated and what are its capabilities?

• What maintenance is typically required for an incline conveyor with scales?

• Can this system be integrated into an existing production line?

• What safety features should I look for?

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.
