Heavy-Duty
PRAB conveyors are built tough to withstand the harsh conditions and materials moved in the metalworking industry.
Value
PRAB’s load-out conveyor system provides even distribution of scrap into containers and maximizes container fill which leads to lower haul-away costs and get more value per container fill.

Load-out systems with shuttle conveyor maximizes scrap removal.

The PRAB shuttle conveyor load-out systems automate final load-out of stamping scrap, die scrap and machining scrap into large trailers or railcars to maximum container fill. Open frame construction provides personnel quick and safe access to carry over.

This scrap material conveyor features a traversing, bidirectional steel belt designed for final load-out of stamping and die scrap, as well as chip processing, into large trailers or railcars.

  • Maximum container fill
  • Automatic level sensors provide visual alert when full
  • Access platforms with safety railings meeting OSHA requirements
  • Heavy-duty PRAB steel belting
  • Frames are supported on hardened rail track and steel wheels
  • Open frame construction for quick and safe access to carryover
  • 4 available chute options including Stationary, Enclosed/Pant Leg, Tilted and Orbital
  • Integral scales assure containers are full, but do not exceed road weight limits
  • Infeed conveyor controls can be interlocked with process
  • Indexing and timed operating options are available
  • Optional 6″ pitch heavy-duty open frame
  • Auto lube systems for automatic greasing of bearings.
