Straight Conveyor

• Moving products between processing stages in food manufacturing.
• Transporting components along assembly lines in industrial settings.
• Handling packaged goods in warehousing and logistics operations.
• Feeding raw materials into production machinery.
• Extracting finished products from packaging lines.

Typical belt width

Commonly ranges from 300mm to 1000mm for this class of equipment.

Typical length

Units of this type are often found in lengths from 1m to 10m, with modular extensions possible.

Power supply

Typically requires a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, though single-phase options exist for lighter duty units.

Belt material

Often features PVC, PU, or rubber belts, selected based on application and product characteristics.

Frame material

Commonly constructed from mild steel (painted or powder-coated) or stainless steel for hygiene-sensitive environments.

Speed range

Typically offers variable speed control, allowing adjustment to suit production requirements.

• What kind of products can a straight conveyor handle?

  Straight conveyors are versatile and can handle a wide range of products, including boxes, bags, components, bulk materials, and packaged goods, depending on the belt type and design.

• Is this conveyor suitable for food contact applications?

• What maintenance is typically required for a used straight conveyor?

• Can the speed of the conveyor be adjusted?

• What are the typical installation requirements?

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.
