Curved Conveyor

The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. However, when handling materials, it may be necessary to go around a few corners between points A and B. That’s where curved belt conveyors help you move packages in the right direction. Curved belt conveyors allow for changes of direction throughout the facility at a variety of angles.
 

What is a curved conveyor?

Curved conveyors are conveyors with a curved shape that changes the direction of the transported goods without changing their orientation. This means that the front of the product remains facing the direction of travel as it leaves the belt. Curved conveyors are designed for flexibility, maximizing available space and improving setup capabilities by creating the most efficient conveyor solution for your space. The curved design eliminates unnecessary conveyor lengths and handling times. Built to handle heavy loads, curved belt conveyors are ready to integrate with your existing solution and meet even the most demanding conveying needs.
 

Basic structure of curved conveyor:

 

• The conveyor frame is bent at a certain angle, usually made of high-strength steel, good load-bearing capacity
• The belt is usually made of rubber, PVC, PU with high thickness and elasticity, and can withstand large loads. The surface is smooth or ribbed to prevent slipping
• The driving roller creates traction to move the conveyor
• The conveyor support roller helps support and reduce friction between the conveyor and the frame
• The transmission system includes an electric motor, gearbox, and transmission chain
• The control system includes an electrical cabinet, inverter, and sensor
• In addition, there are side barriers, moving wheels, and accompanying accessories
   

Advantages of using curved conveyors:

 

• Conveyors can be designed with many different curvature angles such as: 45 degrees, 60 degrees, 90, 180 degrees, etc., flexibly according to usage needs
• Optimizing space, helping to save installation space for limited areas
• Improving transportation efficiency, no interruptions, helping to increase productivity and production efficiency
• Corrosion resistance and can work in many different environmental conditions.
• Combining with production lines helps to bring high efficiency in the transportation process.
• Curved conveyors can work in many types of narrow, curved terrain.
• Reasonable price.

 

Applications of curved conveyors

This is a smart and flexible transportation solution, widely used in many different industries and fields:
 

• Transporting raw materials and products through processing stages in the food production line such as: washing, pre-processing, cutting, packaging, etc. Ensuring food hygiene and safety by limiting manual transportation operations.
• Transporting fabrics, clothes, and garment accessories in garment factories, helping to move products through production stages such as: cutting, sewing, ironing, packaging, etc.
• Transporting electronic components, circuit boards, and finished products in electronic equipment production lines.
• Transporting goods and packages in warehouses and yards, helping to move goods up and down trucks, arranging goods in warehouses, etc.
• Transporting goods in logistics centers and post offices.
• Transporting raw materials, finished products, and supplies in factories, helping to move products through different production stages.

 

Common types of curved conveyors:

Below are the types of curved conveyors commonly used in today's industries:
 

1 - Conveyor curved 60 degrees:

 

• Conveyor frame is made of galvanized steel, stainless steel is machined with strong bearing bars, good load capacity
• Conveyor belt: PVC, PU, ​​high strength, oil resistance, wear resistance, strong impact resistance
• Conveyor belt bend angle is 60 degrees
• Geared motor
• Controller: inverter, switch,..

  

2 - 90 degree curved conveyor- curved plastic chain conveyor

A 90 degree bend conveyor is a special type of conveyor designed to redirect materials or products moving at a right angle (90 degrees). Instead of moving in a straight line, the material will be redirected in a direction perpendicular to the original direction.
 

• Plastic chain conveyor is light weight, easy to install and low maintenance
• Steel conveyor frame, sturdy stainless steel, good bearing
• The 90-degree curved angle is suitable for small terrain or creating bends for transportation
• High strength plastic chain, good resistance
• Plastic chain conveyors operate stably, reduce noise significantly compared to stainless steel chain conveyors
• Application in food processing, confectionery, beverage, pharmaceutical industries

 

3 - 45 degree curved conveyor belt - curved roller conveyor:

 

• Conveyor structure curved angle 45º,60º,90º,180º.
• Rollers made of galvanized steel, stainless steel, plastic, rubber coated rollers with required sizes
• Conveyor frame is made of stainless steel, powder coated steel, stainless steel, profiled aluminum
• Chain sprocket B40-Z14
• Powder coated steel frame
• 180W power motor, stepless control
• Conveyor feet can be adjusted with adjustable feet, fixed or movable
• Curved roller conveyors are applied in many fields of production, especially transporting goods and packaging products

 

4 - 180 degree curved conveyor

Conveyor curved design on request: Conveyor curve angle 30, 45, 60, 90 degrees

Curved conveyors are designed to transport materials around curves and corners, in most cases rotating at angles of 30, 45, 60, 90 or 180 degrees. This is the equipment chosen by many manufacturing units with the ability to exploit the entire available floor space, so they are an effective and cost-saving solution so as not to affect the production line when space optimization is needed.

As a leading conveyor solution provider in Vietnam, Intech Group is proud to provide the service of designing and manufacturing curved conveyors according to customer requirements. We design curved corner conveyors with sizes and loads suitable for customer transportation needs, ensuring efficiency and safety for the product.

Intech conveyors have their own characteristics suitable for each transmission requirement to bring high efficiency. Customers interested in conveyor products can contact us for advice and quotation.
