When to use a Hinged Steel Belt Conveyor?

The steel belt conveyor is the most versatile of conveyors, it can be used to handle nearly every kind of part and all types of scrap. Other common names for these conveyors are Piano Hinge Conveyors, Hinged Belt Conveyors and Hinged Slat Conveyors. Most applications involve handling metal, with the material often dropping with an impact that other conveyors could not withstand.

Two and one half pitch models handle most applications. Often, four and six inch pitch steel belt conveyors are needed for larger scrap, castings, forgings and any applications with heavy loads or long runs. A Titan steel belt conveyor is capable of combining in a single conveyor runs of horizontal and elevated movements. Titan’s exclusive Radial Sidewings eliminates the gap between sidewings to provide a jam free operation and a more efficient running conveyor. Only Titan offers Radial Sidewings on all pitch sizes.
