LOMA Systems - Used 2022 LOMA (IQ3) Systems Incline Conveyor

• Elevating products to multihead weighers or other packaging machinery.
• Transferring items between different levels in a processing or packing line.
• Feeding product into checkweighers or metal detectors.
• Integrating with automated production lines requiring vertical product movement.

Typical throughput

Throughput for incline conveyors of this class typically depends on belt speed, product size, and incline angle, often ranging from 500 kg/hr to several tonnes/hr.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on standard industrial single-phase or three-phase power, typically 230V or 400V, 50Hz.

Construction materials

Food-grade incline conveyors, especially those designed for hygienic washdown, typically feature heavy-duty stainless-steel frames and food-safe belting materials such as PU or PVC.

Incline angle

The incline angle for this class of equipment is typically adjustable or fixed, commonly ranging from 15 to 45 degrees, depending on product stability and elevation requirements.

Variable speed control

Variable speed control is a common feature, allowing for integration with upstream and downstream equipment and optimisation for different product types.

Hygiene standards

Conveyors built to 'hygienic washdown standards' are typically designed for easy cleaning and sanitisation, suitable for food processing environments.

• What types of products can this conveyor handle?

  This type of incline conveyor is typically suitable for a wide range of free-flowing and semi-free-flowing products, including snacks, confectionery, frozen foods, and small packaged goods. The specific product suitability depends on belt type and cleat configuration.

• Is this conveyor suitable for washdown environments?

• What maintenance is typically required for an incline conveyor?

• Can the belt speed be adjusted?

• What certifications should I look for with this type of 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.
