Priden - Used Stainless Steel In-feed Incline Conveyor

• Transporting bulk materials from a lower to a higher level, often feeding processing machinery.
• Loading hoppers, mixers, or packaging lines with granular or small-piece products.
• Integrating into food processing lines for ingredients like grains, powders, or small vegetables.
• Handling non-food items such as plastics, chemicals, or aggregates in industrial settings.

Typical capacity

Throughput for this class of equipment commonly ranges from 500 kg/hr to several tonnes/hr, depending on belt width and incline angle.

Power supply

Units of this type typically operate on a 3-phase electrical supply, commonly 400V, 50Hz, with motor power generally between 0.37 kW and 2.2 kW.

Construction material

This unit is specified as stainless steel, which is standard for hygiene-critical applications, particularly in food and pharmaceutical industries.

Incline angle

Incline conveyors commonly feature angles between 30 and 45 degrees, optimised for material flow without rollback.

Belt material

Belts are typically food-grade PVC or PU, chosen for durability, hygiene, and resistance to oils or abrasives.

Footprint

The overall footprint will depend on the length of the conveyor and the incline angle, requiring sufficient space for both the infeed and discharge points.

• What types of materials can this conveyor handle?

  This type of incline conveyor is suitable for a wide range of free-flowing and semi-free-flowing bulk materials, including powders, granules, pellets, and small solid items. The specific belt type will determine suitability for very fine or sticky products.

• Is this unit suitable for food contact applications?

• What maintenance is typically required for an incline conveyor?

• Can the speed of the conveyor be adjusted?

• What safety features are commonly found on 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.
