Choosing the right conveyor depends on five variables: scrap form, fluid content, abrasiveness, volume, and layout.
- Use a Steel Belt Conveyor for mixed, sharp, heavy, hot, or abrasive scrap, and when you need long-term durability.
- Use a Pivot Belt Conveyor for thin-gauge, oily, or sticky stamping scrap that tends to cling to belts.
- Use an Oscillating Conveyor for gentle, horizontal chip or scrap movement, especially machine-side or in-pit transport.
Rule of thumb:
-
Versatile & heavy-duty: Steel Belt
-
Sticky/oily stamping scrap: Pivot Belt
-
Horizontal chip transfer: Oscillating
