The Span Tech VO-PHF vertical offset conveyor with plain high friction chain is ideal for transporting flexible packaged items or applications where belt conveyors have been traditionally used. The tight knit and Sanoprene non-skid surface of the chain lattice provide a high friction flush surface for products as they are transported in inclining and declining operations. Will support products down to 1 inch (25.4mm), however products must be on high friction links. If gravity transfer is used, minimum product size is 4.5 inches (114.3mm) in diameter. The transfer is set to a decline angle of approximately 6°. For stability, these units must be anchored to the floor. Ideal for soft, flexible products (such as bags) and end-to-end transfers.
The Span Tech VO-RHF vertical offset conveyor with a raised high friction chain is used for rigid products. Raised high friction chain features Sanoprene links. When you add a Finger Transfer, objects down to 1.5 inches (38.1mm) can be transferred off the end of the conveyor. The transfer is set to a decline angle of approximately 10° and the object must be positioned on the raised portion of the chain. For stability, these units must be anchored to the floor. Good for conveying large or small, but stable bottomed products. Also ideal for finger transfer applications.
The Span Tech VO-MSG vertical offset conveyor features 75mm left and right guides molded into the side links of the chain. This feature provides positive retention of products during transportation. Use this style chain where the product you are moving might get tangled in conventional guide rails. Gravity or Finger Transfers are not available with this type of conveyor chain. For stability, these units must be anchored to the floor. Excellent conveyor for irregular shaped loads and soft, flexible products.
The Span Tech VO-PSC vertical offset conveyor with 50mm pusher cleat chain features a series of vertical cleats arranged in rows across the width of the chain. Pusher cleats can be spaced at any 25mm interval. This type of conveyor is used where no side rails are required and the product is inherently stable on the chain. Gravity or Finger Transfers are not available with this type of conveyor chain. Do not use this type of conveyor chain where hands are present. For stability, these units must be anchored to the floor. Ideal for irregular shaped loads and bulk applications.
The Span Tech VO-PMS vertical offset conveyor with 50mm pusher cleat and moving side guides chain forms a pocket within the chain bed and is effective in containing a product on the conveyor without the use of side rails. This type of chain is normally used when transporting bulk product on inclines and declines. Gravity or Finger Transfers are not available with this type of conveyor chain. For stability, these units must be anchored to the floor.
The Span Tech VO-SMS vertical offset conveyor with 50mm scoop cleats and moving side guides chain features a pocket within the chain bed and is effective in containing a product on the conveyor without the use of side rails. This type of chain is especially useful when transporting bulk product in more aggressive inclining and declining angles. Gravity or Finger Transfers are not available with this type of conveyor chain. For stability, these units must be anchored to the floor. Ideal for bulk product conveyance.
