Unknown - Twin Lane Conveyor

• Separating product streams on a single line.
• Buffering and accumulating products between processing stages.
• Facilitating parallel processing or packaging operations.
• Diverting products for inspection or re-work.

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment typically ranges from 500 to 2000 units per hour per lane, depending on product size and conveyor speed.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a 400V, 3-phase electrical supply, though smaller units may operate on 230V, 1-phase.

Conveyor belt material

Belts are typically made from food-grade PVC, PU, or modular plastic, selected based on the application and product characteristics.

Lane width

Individual lane widths commonly range from 100mm to 400mm, with the overall width determined by the number of lanes and frame design.

Frame construction

Frames are typically constructed from stainless steel for food processing environments or painted mild steel for general industrial use.

Speed control

Variable speed drives are commonly fitted to allow adjustment of conveyor speed to suit production requirements.

• What products are suitable for a twin lane conveyor?

  Twin lane conveyors are suitable for a wide range of discrete products, including packaged goods, components, and some bulk items, provided they are stable on the belt.

• Can the lanes operate at different speeds?

• What maintenance is typically required?

• Is this conveyor suitable for washdown environments?

• How is product transferred between lanes or to other 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.
