NNP Stainless conveyor

• Transporting raw ingredients or finished products within a food processing line.
• Moving packaged goods between different stages of production or packaging.
• Integrating with other machinery such as depositors, fillers, or inspection systems.
• Facilitating cooling, drying, or washing processes when combined with appropriate ancillaries.

Typical throughput

Variable, dependent on belt speed, product size, and density. For this class of equipment, throughput can range from hundreds to several thousand items or kilograms per hour.

Power supply

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

Belt material

Typically food-grade PVC, PU, or modular plastic, selected based on product contact and hygiene requirements.

Frame material

Units of this type commonly feature stainless steel construction (e.g., 304 or 316 grade) for hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Speed control

Variable speed drives are standard, allowing for precise integration into production lines.

Footprint

The stated belt dimensions (4700mm x 350mm) indicate the active conveying area. The overall machine footprint will be slightly larger to accommodate the frame and motor.

Hygiene features

Designs typically incorporate open frames and minimal harborage points to facilitate cleaning.

• What types of products are suitable for this conveyor?

  Stainless steel conveyors with appropriate belt materials are suitable for a wide range of food products, including bulk ingredients, packaged goods, and items requiring washdown.

• Can the conveyor direction be changed?

• Is this conveyor suitable for washdown environments?

• What maintenance is typically required for a conveyor of this type?

• What safety features should I look for?

• Can the height and angle be adjusted?

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.
