Dorner conveyors now available from Automation Supplies

The range includes a vast array of industrial conveyors in steel, stainless steel and aluminium profile construction. Traditional flat belt conveyors and belt conveyor bends are complemented by modular plastic belts with standard bends and incline derivatives of the highest quality. The belt conveyors have innovative features to improve reliability and reduce maintenance - such as positive v-belt guidance and rack-and-pinion tensioning. These innovations are standard on many belt conveyors and help to reduce belt wear and belt change times. Selected centre drive units for belt conveyors also feature gas strut or pneumatic-assisted automatic belt tensioning, so repeated manual adjustment is not necessary.

Perhaps the most innovative and exciting recent development from Dorner is the Aqua-Pruf range of modular sanitary conveyors. Available as flat belt, belt bends, modular plastic straights and conveyor bends, together with a comprehensive range of elevating conveyors, the Aqua-Pruf product line is probably the most complete standard sanitary food-grade conveyor range available. The standard Aqua-Pruf conveyor has many features to aid efficient cleaning in washdown situations and can be easily taken apart if necessary. Strip-down of a typical conveyor takes one person just three minutes. Moreover, preparation for daily cleaning takes 30 seconds and can be achieved without any special tools.

The Aqua-Pruf ultimate range takes this to new levels with features such as integrated automatic belt washing, plastic bearings, and TIG-welded construction with no fasteners in the food zone. Aqua-Pruf conveyors are manufactured from 304 stainless as standard but can be specified in 316 stainless if required. This investment in design has brought about various accreditations from the USA bakery and agricultural industries.
