AM-K Angled Modular Chain Conveyor


The AM-K 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-K is equipped with a cleated chain made of plastic modules, lateral guide rails and a feeding hopper with a fall-back flap.

The standard height of the side guides is 50 mm, upon request, however, it can also be delivered in other heights.
The length of the 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-K 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.
