NNP Flighted elevator conveyor

• Transferring bulk food products between different processing stages.
• Feeding packaging machinery from a lower elevation.
• Lifting ingredients to mixers or hoppers.
• Moving delicate items while minimising damage.

Typical throughput

Typically several hundred kilograms per hour, depending on product density and flight spacing.

Power supply

Commonly 400V, 3 Phase, 50Hz for industrial applications in the UK.

Construction material

Units of this type are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel for hygiene and durability.

Elevation range

For this class of equipment, elevation ranges commonly vary, but units are designed to lift products from floor level to various heights.

Belt width

Belt widths on flighted elevators typically range from 200mm to 600mm, influencing product capacity.

Footprint

The footprint is typically determined by the elevation height and incline angle, requiring sufficient floor space for stable operation.

• What types of products are suitable for a flighted elevator?

  Flighted elevators are well-suited for a wide range of free-flowing and semi-free-flowing products, including granular, diced, frozen, and fragile items such as vegetables, fruits, snacks, and confectionery.

• How is the incline angle typically adjusted?

• What maintenance is typically required for these conveyors?

• Can this type of conveyor handle wet products?

• Are spare parts readily available for unknown manufacturer units?

• 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.
