Tong engineering stainless conveyor

• Transporting raw or processed food items between different stages of a production line.
• Moving packaged goods for inspection, labelling, or further processing.
• Handling delicate produce with reduced risk of damage due to controlled variable speed.
• Integrating into washing, sorting, or grading lines for continuous material flow.

Typical throughput

Variable, depending on belt speed and product density; for this class, often suited for medium-volume operations.

Power supply

Commonly 230V single-phase or 400V three-phase, requiring a standard industrial connection.

Construction material

Typically full stainless steel frame and components for hygiene and corrosion resistance in food environments.

Belt material

Often food-grade PVC, PU, or modular plastic, selected for durability and ease of cleaning.

Footprint

For this belt size, the overall footprint would typically be around 1.6m to 1.8m in length and 0.5m to 0.7m in width, including motor and frame.

Maintenance requirements

Regular cleaning, belt tension checks, and lubrication of bearings are typically required to ensure operational longevity.

• What are the benefits of a variable speed conveyor?

  Variable speed allows for precise control over product flow, reducing bottlenecks and accommodating different processing speeds. It also helps in handling delicate items or integrating with other machinery.

• Is a stainless steel conveyor suitable for wet environments?

• What type of products can this conveyor handle?

• What should I consider regarding installation?

• Are spare parts readily available for Tong Engineering equipment?

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.
