Improved stack stability
Astec Conveyors designed and manufactured a heavy duty modular flat belt conveyor system for a leading corrugated cardboard manufacturer to transport stacks of corrugated cardboard weighing up to 1,000kg each.
The use of plastic modular belting is an alternative to conventional roller conveyor and provides solid support for transportation, dramatically improving stack stability.
The heavy duty conveyor side frames are constructed from powder coated mild or stainless steel to give a solid and robust structure. The frame is designed with a very low profile to ensure that the height of the conveyor was compatible with an existing trolley car and downstream equipment.
The heavy duty modular belt is blue with yellow inserts on the edge to easily identify when the conveyor is moving.
