for secure product transport

Conveying solution for automated candle transport

Customer requirement

For the transport of candles, a space-saving conveying solution was required that securely transports products over an incline and several curves. Due to the sensitive surface of the candles, the material flow had to be particularly gentle and at the same time non-slip. In addition, the system needed to be flexibly integrated into the existing production environment.

Our solution

An incline belt conveyor of type BC-F85 Form D with a flexible D-Flex chain conveyor belt was implemented. The system features multiple horizontal and vertical bends, allowing for a compact routing in confined spaces.

A hinge belt chain BC-F-878 TAB K325 with a grip coating is used, ensuring a secure hold of the products even in the incline section. The conveyor was designed with rigid side guides, an SEW drive, and a conveying speed of 8 m/min.
