Trim Line Aluminum or Steel Frame Conveyors

• Aluminum or Steel. . . it’s your choice — choose aluminum for greater portability, steel for maximum heavy duty industrial wear.
• Direct Drive Package: The motor and SEALED GEAR REDUCER attach directly to the pulley shaft, minimizing maintenance.
• 4-40 FPM AC Variable Speed Drive
• No roller chain or sprockets to align
• 50 lbs. maximum load
• Leg Sets and Castors included (adjustable up to 34" belt height)
• Double V-Guide Belt Tracking: Provides exceptionally stable belt tracking, which significantly extends belt life. Guides are on the sides rather than the middle make it easier to track the belt.
• Semi-Modular Construction: EMI belt conveyors are built in sections to allow future changes in belt length, if desired.
• Optional Accumulation Hoppers Available

Specifications:

1. Drive Package: The Direct Drive package includes a C-faced, TEFC 1/4 hp AC motor with a variable speed controller. 4-40 FPM is standard conveyor speed (alternate speed available). 15' of SJ cord with a standard three-prong plug is pre-wired to the starter (other voltage and motor starters available). Control wiring is contained in liquid tight conduit and connectors. Drive packages for conveyors 3'–20' long have 50 lbs. maximum load.

2. Belt Guidance: True Track Belt Guidance System comes standard on 3'–20' long conveyors. Using a Double V-guide slot in the frame, 1/4" wall crowned pulleys, and bonded Double V-guide belting, “True Track” minimizes belt run off and reduces belt tracking maintenance.

3. Pulleys: To ensure long lived operation, 2 3/8" diameter crowned pulleys incorporate 5/8" diameter steel shafts, self aligning sealed ball bearings, telescopic take-up adjustment, position locking nuts, and Zerk grease fittings.

4. Belting: Our easy to clean, FDA approved, white, PVC belting with staple-type belt lacing (which prevents lacing pullout and splice failure ), makes belt maintenance quick and easy. Inclined conveyors have a bottom cleat support plate and bonded flexible cleats that have no bolts or rivets that may tear out.>

5. Frame: Choose from 1/8" anodized sheet aluminum for greater portability, or 12-gauge safety orange painted steel for maximum stability. Both are built to withstand heavy-duty industrial wear.

6. Rails: To ensure molded pieces do not get pinched, damaged, or lost between the rail and belt, we place either 12-gauge stainless steel or 1/8" anodized aluminum 2" or 4" rails (depending on model) so that they overlap the belt. To keep your molded parts contained on the infeed end of the conveyor, we include an infeed-end back-piece.

7. Shipment: Generally conveyors 3'–10' are shipped fully assembled, pre-wired, tested, and ready to run (legs must be attached). Conveyors 11' and over are shipped partially assembled to minimize shipping damage. Some frame and belt assembly is required; drive packages and system panels are pre-assembled and tested. For your convenience, arrangements can be made for longer conveyors to be shipped assembled.

8. Leg Sets: Adjustable leg sets and locking swivel castors are included as standard on all Merit Line conveyors. Belt height must be specified.
