Twin Lane Conveyor

Applications & Use Cases

• Separating product streams in packaging lines.
• Buffering and accumulating products before further processing.
• Diverting items to different workstations or inspection points.
• Integrating with automated sorting or weighing systems.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment typically ranges from 500 to 5,000 units per hour, depending on product size and line speed.

Power supply

Commonly found on units of this type, a 3-phase electrical supply (e.g., 400V, 50Hz) is typically required, though some smaller units may operate on single-phase.

Conveyor belt material

Belts are typically made from food-grade PVC, PU, or modular plastic for hygiene and durability.

Lane width

Individual lane widths commonly range from 100mm to 400mm, allowing for varied product sizes.

Frame construction

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

Speed control

Variable speed control is a common feature, often via an inverter drive, to integrate with upstream and downstream equipment.
