Syspal Incline Conveyor

• Elevating products between different levels in a production line.
• Feeding packaging machinery or processing equipment.
• Transferring bulk materials from ground level to mezzanines or hoppers.
• Moving items over obstacles on a factory floor.

Typical throughput

Varies significantly based on product type, incline angle, and belt speed, but units of this class commonly handle several hundred to over a thousand items per hour for discrete products.

Power supply

Typically requires a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with a motor rating in the range of 0.37kW to 1.5kW, depending on length and load.

Belt material

Commonly food-grade PVC or PU, suitable for a range of product types and environments.

Frame material

Often constructed from stainless steel for hygiene and durability, particularly in food processing applications, or painted mild steel for general industrial use.

Footprint

For this class of equipment, the overall length can range from 3m to over 6m, with widths typically between 0.5m and 1.2m including the frame.

Maintenance requirements

Generally low, involving routine belt tension checks, motor and gearbox lubrication (if applicable), and cleaning. Wear parts like belts and bearings require periodic inspection and replacement.

• What types of products are suitable for an incline swan neck conveyor?

  These conveyors are well-suited for a wide range of discrete products, including packaged goods, components, fruits, vegetables, and small bulk items, provided they are stable on the belt and can be moved by the flytes.

• Can the speed of the conveyor be adjusted?

• Is this type of conveyor suitable for washdown environments?

• What is the typical lifespan of the conveyor belt?

• Are spare parts readily available for these conveyors?

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.
