12 Inch Conveying Elevator
Designed to carry product from one level to another, these
Conveying Elevators allow food processors to utilize their plant's free space
more efficiently.
The Conveying
Elevator is constructed completely of sanitary stainless steel and food grade plastic.
The modular belting is made of plastic with six inch wide buckets spaced every six inches.
The entire delivery side of the elevator is enclosed to ensure that even
small product pieces stay on the belt, and not on the floor. Installation is easy
because the thick walled construction resists warping when being moved into place
with fork trucks. Cleaning is even easier; just remove the outer panels, and
the entire elevator can be cleaned in no time; All areas are accessible!

Maintenance
- Regularly inspect the product guard adjustment assemblies. Tighten the locking nuts if they are loose,
and make sure that the product guards are not pinching the cups as they pass. As a rule, maintain at least
1/32 of an inch between the side of the cups and the product guards.
- Follow the gear reducer manufacturer's maintenance recomendations.
- Regularly inspect the drive chain, and replace as necessary
- Make sure that there is sufficent "slack" in the elevator's belting. Do not run the belt tight; Some
slack is required because the belt will expand and contract significantly as the ambiant room temperature fluctuates.
As a rule, allow the belt to sag to aproximately 2 inches below the bottom of the lower horizontal section.
