Technical information sheet Standard safety protection system Chain Tensioning Protection Spiral Conveyors are standard provided with an automatic chain tensioner, controlled by means of a proximity switch. Overload Protection The geared motor of the Spiral Conveyor has been provided with an overload safety device controlled by means of a proximity switch. Cross Over Sections At the in- and outfeed of our Spiral Conveyor we have got several solutions to ensure a proper transfer of the product onto and from the Spiral Conveyor. The type of cross over section is dependant on the type and the size of the product. Chain-Slat Arrangement Stable The Spiral Conveyor includes a double row of low friction bearings, perfectly guided by polyurethane tubes. The transport slats are reinforced with fiberglass. Low Friction Level Due to the fiberglass reinforced transport slats, there is no need to support. Lubrication under the slats is not necessary. Low Noise Level By using rolling bearings, the noise level has been incredibly reduced.
