CUSTOM INDUSTRIAL HANDLING SYSTEMS
Belt elevators
Belt elevators are used to handle light bulk products that generally need to be brought to a certain height and then transferred to the next conveyor, in a silo or in a loading hopper of a machine.
This is done by using strips that are vulcanized (to a belt with a polyester base and a plastic coating) or mounted (to a modular chain) at a pitch depending on the length of the product. This type of handling is used in the manual loading phase carried out by an operator or automatically at the exit of a machine. The shape of the products can be powdery, pasty or granular and the maximum recommended inclination is around 60°, however it is always evaluated based on the dimensions of the product itself.
CUSTOM INDUSTRIAL HANDLING SYSTEMS
Belt elevators for the industrial sector: some examples
Belt elevator in green pvc with vulcanized laths with constant pitch
load section with hopper and lower protections, side guides in sheet steel with white polyurethane plates, motorization with discharge protection, support legs with adjustable sleeves. System for transporting fine wood chips.
Belt elevator in white pvc with vulcanized L-laths
horizontal section with loading hopper, inclined section with adjustable guides, head for unloading with a protection. Structure in semi-finished profiles in painted carbon steel and parts in contact with the product in AISI-304, supports on adjustable wheeled base. System for soap handling in recycling plant.
Belt elevator in white pvc with square laths with constant pitch

- Galvanized steel (galvanic or hot dip)
- Stainless steel (AISI-304 or Aisi-316) satin finished (medium grain or scotch-brite for food and pharmaceutical use) and non-satin finished (for industrial use and for high temperatures)
Options
- Choice of component brand (motor, reducer, supports, bearings, etc.) as an alternative to our standard offer (Varvel, Seipe, NSK/Tecom, Skf, etc.)
- Electrical system and on-board machine according to customer specifications (regulations, brands, etc.)
- Pneumatic system and wiring (our standard Metal Work or brand on customer request)
Advantages of elevator belts
The adoption of conveyors brings a series of benefits, measurable both in terms of efficiency and savings on operating costs.
Reduction of manual handling
- Reduction of operator travel: Safe automation of transport reduces downtime and risks associated with manual handling.
- Continuous and controlled flow: electronic management of the belt eliminates most of the interruptions typical of manual systems.
Greater logistics efficiency
- Integration with existing automated systems: Conveyors can be easily connected to production lines, picking systems or sorting plants.
- Reduced operating costs: a linear and controlled work cycle significantly reduces downtime and ensures greater handling speed and efficiency.
