Belt Conveyors

Belt systems are predominantly used for handling all types of packaging or loose products. Depending on the use, the belt finish can either be a grip surface for inclines, low friction or food quality, this is achieved using either rubber, PVC or specified materials. The frame construction can also be manufactured in various materials, eg, mild steel, powder coated, zinc coated or stainless steel. Fixed or Variable speed can be achieved via an externally mounted end drive unit, or motorised drum assembly. For reversing facility, a centrally mounted underslung motor would be used in conjunction with forward and reverse controls. For more integrated systems, a central external control panel would be used. Production requirements and facilities determine the construction and composition of the scheme.
