Titan hinged steel belt conveyor for handling metal scrap and machining chips

Above: hinged steel belt conveyors handle metal scrap, machining chips, and other demanding materials.

Need a conveyor that can handle heavy scrap, chips, and parts?

Hinged steel belt conveyors from Titan handle tough materials in manufacturing, machining, stamping, and recycling operations.

Hinged steel belt conveyors move metal scrap, machining chips, stamped parts, and other materials through demanding industrial processes. Their interlocking steel belt aprons provide a durable conveying surface for applications where materials may drop onto the conveyor or put repeated impacts on the belt.

Also called piano hinge conveyors, these systems are available in different belt pitches, frame styles, and configurations to handle a wide range of materials and production requirements. They can move material horizontally, elevate it to another level, or combine horizontal and inclined sections in one conveyor.

Titan offers several hinged steel belt conveyor models, from low-profile chip conveyors to heavy-duty systems for larger scrap and demanding industrial applications.

Choose the right hinged steel belt conveyor

Multiple Titan hinged steel belt conveyor models for scrap and parts handling

Titan offers hinged steel belt conveyors in multiple configurations to handle a range of materials and applications.

Different applications call for different belt sizes, frame construction, and material-handling capabilities. Titan's hinged steel belt conveyor lineup includes several models to help match the conveyor to your process.

Model 610: A low-profile, 2 1/2-inch-pitch chip conveyor with features for machine-tool applications, including a liquid-tight bottom pan and options for different belt styles.
Model 620: A low-profile, 2 1/2-inch-pitch conveyor with belt widths from 6 to 36 inches, options for stamped or radial sidewings, and configurations for horizontal and inclined conveying.
Model 630: A full-profile, 2 1/2-inch-pitch conveyor with a heavier frame and track construction, multiple configurations, and standard curve options for applications that need a more substantial conveyor.
Model 640: A heavy-duty, 4-inch-pitch conveyor with reinforced belt and roller components, belt widths from 6 to 60 inches, and an optional 3-inch-high sidewing for added capacity.
Model 660: A 6-inch-pitch conveyor for large scrap and demanding recycling applications, with a 1/4-inch-thick steel belt apron and rugged construction for heavy industrial use.
Model 350 Pro Feed: A steel belt parts feeder with a customizable hopper for bulk loading and continuous or on-demand feeding. Its close-tolerance radial sidewings help reduce jamming, pinch points, and product carryover.
Quench conveyors: Liquid-tight conveyor systems for quenching, cooling, or rinsing parts and scrap. Available belt options include hinged steel, wire mesh, and plastic, with tank arrangements and optional pumps and controls.

What should you consider when selecting a hinged steel belt conveyor?

The right conveyor depends on the material you're moving, the path it needs to follow, and the demands of your operation. Consider these factors when choosing a model:

Material type: Consider the size, weight, shape, and characteristics of the scrap, chips, or parts being moved.
Material volume: Material volume and weight help determine the appropriate belt pitch and conveyor model.
Conveyor path: Consider belt width, conveyor length, incline, discharge height, and available floor space.
Liquid handling: Coolant, quenching fluids, and other liquids may call for a liquid-tight pan, tank, or other specialized construction.
Infeed and discharge: Hoppers, covers, discharge chutes, and other options can help match the conveyor to the surrounding equipment.
Operating conditions: Impact, material temperature, abrasive scrap, and the operating environment can affect the conveyor configuration.
Additional options: Belt styles, drives, controls, guards, and supports vary by model and application.

Features for demanding material-handling applications

Hinged steel belt conveyors offer features for different materials, conditions, and conveying paths.

Durable steel belt construction: Interlocking belt aprons handle metal chips, scrap, and parts that can be too demanding for lighter conveyor belts.
Multiple belt pitches: Choose from 2 1/2-inch, 4-inch, and 6-inch pitches, depending on the model and application.
Radial Sidewings: Titan's close-tolerance sidewing design reduces the gap between the sidewings and belt aprons to help limit jams and material carryover.
Different belt styles: Available options on selected models include plain, perforated, and pimpled belt aprons, along with other application-specific configurations.
Horizontal and inclined conveying: Conveyor configurations can move material along horizontal runs and elevate it to another level.
Application-specific options: Available features may include liquid-tight pans, covers, hoppers, discharge chutes, different drive arrangements, and specialized supports.

Specialized conveyors for parts feeding and quenching

Model 350 Pro Feed parts feeder

The Model 350 Pro Feed uses a steel belt and hopper to supply parts to downstream equipment. Parts can be loaded in bulk for continuous feeding or supplied on demand to a bowl feeder. Its configuration can be tailored to the parts and feeding requirements. Sample parts can be evaluated to help determine a suitable setup.

Typical applications: Feeding bulk parts to bowl feeders and other downstream production equipment.

Quench conveyors

Titan quench conveyors move parts through liquid quenching, cooling, or rinsing operations. These systems can be configured with liquid-tight tanks and different belt types to suit the application. Tank arrangements, pumps, controls, and installation options can be specified to meet process requirements.

Typical applications: Heat treating, die-cast part cooling, liquid quenching, and rinsing processes.
