Conveyors & Handling Systems

Food conveyor - standard version for dry environments

Main function

The Mat Top modular conveyor for dry environments is an automated conveying system built around a modular Mat Top chain mounted on a modular frame structure. This technology ensures stable and continuous movement of unit products, light containers, or packaged loads while providing a flat and coplanar surface particularly suited for sensitive, small, or irregular products.
The Mat Top surface provides uniform product contact without large gaps, reducing the risk of snagging or tipping and facilitating the transport of products with varying formats or surfaces.

Typical applications

· Horizontal or slightly inclined transport of unit products on automated lines
· Transfer between processing, inspection, or packaging stations
· Applications requiring a stable conveying surface (small or irregular products)
· Integration into sorting, accumulation, or distribution systems
· Dry environments where high-pressure washdown is not required or planned

Key benefits

· Flat and stable conveying surface: The modular Mat Top chain ensures uniform product contact, reducing slipping and improving load stability, particularly for small formats or fragile products.
· Flexibility and modularity: The modular design allows the conveyor to be easily configured and reconfigured based on space constraints, product flow, or product formats.
· Quick maintenance: Mat Top modules can be easily replaced without specialized tools, simplifying maintenance and troubleshooting operations.
· Adaptation to high throughput: Designed for industrial automated lines, this conveyor supports high throughput and smooth synchronization with upstream and downstream equipment.
