Modular Belt Conveyor
High-performance modular conveying solution
A modular belt conveyor is primarily composed of modular belts and a steel frame. It also includes other accessories such as a drive motor, control box, sprockets, supports, guides, wear strips, leveling feet, tensioners, flanges, etc.
Type: Modular Belt Conveyor
max speed: 30-40 m/min
Maximum length: 15-20 m
Product Description
Modular belt conveyors offer an intermediate solution between belt conveyors and chain conveyors. A modular belt is composed of individual plastic modules, typically connected by connecting bars.
Modular plastic belt conveyors are connected by connecting bars. These segments can be removed and replaced individually, unlike flat belt conveyors where the entire belt must be discarded. They are also easier to clean and more resistant to sharp and abrasive materials. As a result, modular belt conveyors are simpler to maintain and repair than flat belt conveyors.
Maxsen can help its customers customize a conveyor line to suit their needs, such as: conveyor dimensions (L*W*H), conveyor type and shape, operating temperature, application industry, type, size and weight of packaging materials.

Applications and Industries
This type of conveyor belt is ideal for transporting food products due to its ease of cleaning. The spacing between the plastic segments is adjustable for applications requiring the drainage or retention of liquids during transport. The plastic composition of the segments also makes this conveyor belt suitable for metal detection.
Areas of Application
- Packaging lines
- Cooling and drying applications (air can circulate through the conveyor belt)
- Dehydration applications
- Assembly lines
- Singulation systems
- Merging or routing of the platters
- Warehouse distribution
- Sterilization
Benefits
The modular belt conveyor is easy to clean, ensures smooth product handling, is safe for operators, robustly designed, has a long service life and is easy to maintain with a low cost of ownership.
