Let’s take a look at some of the other features of our Belt Conveyors, including the ways this customizable series can benefit your conveying application.
A Just in Time
Conveyor System
If you need to get a conveying system up and running quickly, then our Belt Conveyors will get the job done. This series comes with a wide selection of dimensions, belt features, belt speed and drive options, making it easy to configure a system according to your unique application requirements. Choose from frame heights of 40, 50 and 80 millimeters, as well as frame widths of 40 to 1,200 millimeters. Depending on the model you select, our Belt Conveyors can also handle loads up to 800 kilograms, with additional lengths, widths and payload capacity available upon request.
In addition, our Belt Conveyors come with 14-millimeter T-slots, making each unit compatible with our universal extrusion system, allowing you to create durable, rigid and vibration-safe systems. Thanks to the extrusions’ concave geometry and interplay with our form-locating, play-free fasteners, you can easily connect extrusions to your Belt Conveyor with strength comparable to welded connections.
