Horizontal to Incline Conveyor
A horizontal load section that transitions to an incline in one piece. Our exclusive UHMW-PE belt hold-down keeps the belt in place through the bend, so it does not pull out of the transition.
Application
Loading level and lifting in one conveyor
The 525 / 725 series begins with a horizontal load section and transitions to an incline. Parts are loaded on the horizontal section by the press, robot, or operator, and the cleated belt carries them up to the discharge height.
The transition is the critical point of this design. A roller hold-down, the common approach, accelerates belt wear and limits how far the belt can back-bend. LaRos uses an exclusive wear-free UHMW-PE hold-down with no rollers. It keeps the belt from bowing out of the transition and allows a conventional laced belt, including on very wide belts.
