Product Description
Flex-Turn? power turning units gently move objects through corners, ensuring optimum product alignment. These are Field-proven and reliable. They provide the tightest level transfer and the shortest inside turning radius available. Smooth product handling reduces the risk of damage to fragile products. The small design addresses constrained production line space issues.
Flex-Turn??Conveyors Advantages:
- Gentle handling minimizes product damage
- Tight transfers with adjacent conveyors and processing equipment
- Maintains product orientation and spacing around turns
- Unique non-collapsing tapered-pitch belt
- Easy to use, clean, and maintain
- Stainless steel and UHMW-PE construction
- Height adjustable standard 34? ? 42?
- Swivel lockable castors are available
- Typical belt speeds up to 36 feet per minute (at the inside edge)
Our Flex-Turn? conveyors are available with three different belt supports:
The Flex-Turn? line includes size, belt width, and configuration options, allowing?a turning conveyor to suit practically any circumstance. Turns of 90? or 180? are conventional, however additional angles ranging from 45? to 180? are available.
- The Series 600 Flex-Turn? conveyor is an open, stainless steel-framed turn conveyor with polyethylene belt supports. Its open structure allows for the easy removal of debris and facilitates washing and draining.
- The Series 700 Flex-Turn??conveyor has a solid polyethylene top. This prevents the product from falling through, or becoming entangled with the strands of the belt.
- The Series 800 Flex-Turn? conveyor has a solid stainless steel top and stainless steel running rails. This option is particularly suited to some meat processing situations.
Flex-Turn® conveyors are available in thirteen belt diameters and angles ranging from 45° to 90°, making them suitable for practically any application. Our standard drive motors and controllers have IP66 enclosure protection and OS2 surface protection to ensure they are ideal for intensive wash-down procedures. If necessary, customer-specified drive systems can be installed to suit each specific application.
A variable-frequency drive (VFD) can be installed alongside the drive motor to offer stop/start and speed control. This comes standard with our Standard Conveyor Control Panel, which has a completely stainless steel casing and an emergency stop button. An Invtek E3 Optidrive controller can also be supplied with a plastic enclosure and no emergency stop function.
Flex-Turn® Conveyors come complete with height-adjustable footpads and mounting holes. Flex-T n® Conveyors can be equipped with lockable, swivel castors that include brakes as an optional extra.
