Conve - Used Incline Conveyor

• Transporting products between different elevations in a production line.
• Feeding processing machinery from a lower level.
• Loading packaging equipment from bulk hoppers.
• Moving items over obstacles on a factory floor.

Typical throughput

Variable, depending on belt speed and product characteristics; commonly several hundred kilograms per hour for this class.

Power supply

Typically 230V single-phase or 400V three-phase, 50Hz, requiring a motor of 0.37kW to 1.5kW.

Belt material

Often food-grade modular plastic (e.g., Intralox) or PU/PVC, suitable for hygiene-sensitive environments.

Frame material

Commonly stainless steel for washdown environments, or mild steel for general industrial use.

Incline angle

Typically adjustable or fixed between 15 and 45 degrees, depending on the product and application.

Footprint

Determined by length and width; for this class, lengths typically range from 1 to 5 metres, with widths from 300mm to 1000mm.

• What types of products can this conveyor handle?

  Incline conveyors with food-grade belts are suitable for a wide range of loose, packaged, or semi-processed food items, as well as various industrial components.

• Is this unit suitable for washdown environments?

• Can the belt speed be adjusted?

• What maintenance is typically required for an incline conveyor?

• Are spare parts readily available for unknown manufacturer 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.
