Optimized for small parts, the handling system features a 5/8-in. roller transfer tail for accurate and efficient product transitions from the conveyor to a machine or another conveyor. The belt is nearly flush with the frame, simplifying side transfers. The belt is also tracked and kept centered by the pinch drive and conveyor frame. The pinch drive, which can be located anywhere along the length of the conveyor, handles 15-lb loads without needing high belt tension. And loosening four fasteners on the drive lets it separate into halves, making belt changes simple and fast.
Conveyors come with fixed-speed ac or brushless-dc gearmotors. The brushless gearmotor offers forward and reverse, as well as 60 indexes/min. Belt speed is adjustable up to 70 fpm, and belts come in widths from 1.75 to 10 in. Conveyor lengths go from 10.5 to 60 in. in 1/8-in. increments.
