Perforated bedplate aids conveyor cooling and draining

Dorner's 2200 Series modular plastic belt conveyor with perforated bedplate option is suitable for applications where the product needs to be cooled. Pre-manufactured holes in the bedplate allow air to flow naturally through the frame and bedplate of the conveyor, thereby cooling the passing product. The conveyor can also be attached to a vacuum to supply additional air through the bedplate.

Another useful feature of the perforated bedplate is that with applications calling for liquid to be sprayed on passing items or where items are damp from a previous process, the pre-manufactured holes allow moisture to drip through the modular plastic belt and bedplate without the worry of collecting inside the frame. The perforated bedplate option is available on 2200 Series conveyors with widths of 305mm or more.

With its low profile, the 2200 Series is designed to fit in tight spaces and is suitable for applications such as high-performance conveying, streamlined machine interface, small parts transfer, accumulation, high temperatures and sharp parts handing.

Other features and benefits customers enjoy from the 2200 Series include:

• Instant belt tensioning
• V-guide bed plate and belt for positive belt tracking
• Requires no special tools
• Load capacity up to 40kg
• Belt speeds up to 85metres per minute
• Belt widths from 45 to 610mm
• Conveyor lengths between 457mm and 5.5m
