Floor-to-Floor Inclined Belt Conveyor, Roach Model 796RBF

Features

• Designed to provide floor-to-floor transition when conveying unit and caseloads
• uses less horsepower than a slider bed belt conveyor
• Incline conveyor provides higher load capacity
• The reversible flow and nose-over allow for simple adjustments for inclines 0-35°
• The roller bed belt conveyor will convey heavier loads than a slider bed conveyor due to less friction. Each roller helps minimize belt friction, providing for greater capacities
• Similar to the slider bed belt conveyor, a roller bed also maintains its overall length as the belt tension is increased

Applications

• Belt conveyors are ideal for transporting small item materials that may drop between rollers
• Material packaged in bags that could get caught up between rollers or wheel systems
• Horizontal belt conveyor systems are used by industries both large and small for efficient transportation of goods from one area to another
• The smooth, continuous surface of a conveyor belt is ideal for many product handling applications from farming and food to mining

Benefits of Belt Conveyor Systems

• Small or Delicate Part Handling 
• Product Accumulation
• Inclining and Elevating with High Friction or Cleated belts 
• Small Parts Transfer 
• Quiet Operation
