AM-Z-W Z-Shaped Modular Chain Conveyor


The AM-Z-W is a particularly robust flexible belt conveyor.

Its aluminium frame is 95 mm high and provided with groove profiles which can be used for easily attaching any accessories.
As a standard, the belt conveyor AM-Z-W is equipped with a cleated chain made of plastic modules and co-running side plates. A hopper with a fall-back flap is mounted on the feed end.

The length of the top and bottom horizontal and inclined parts can be adjusted to the individual application. However, a total length of 4 metres should not be exceeded. From the ground, the angle of inclination of the AM-Z-W can be adjusted in steps of 5° between 40° and 60°

The cleats may be 1, 2 or 3 inches high and their distance on the conveyor between one another can be freely selected in 1-inch steps. The plastic module chains of the AM-K have been approved by the FDA and are easy to clean. In addition, they are particularly hard-wearing and easy to maintain thanks to the possibility of replacing individual links.

As a standard, the horizontal part is provided with small rollers as support to enable an easy movement of the belt conveyor. A double stand can be inserted in the inclined part, as shown in the figure above. A mobile H-shaped pillar stand can also be used. All stand systems are infinitely adjustable in height.
