Feed Conveyor: Existing upstream conveyor must be capable of presenting 1 load at a time to synchronize with platform or a new 2 stage speed-up conveyor will be required.
Safety Tunnels: 2'-6" (1.2M) long for feed conveyors.
Structure & Safety Enclosure: Mechanical tubing for strength, ease of viewing and preventative maintenance. Not sheet steel with cut-outs and patch doors. Wire mesh 2" x 2" (50 x 50mm) safety enclosure, is free standing or mounted to structure.
Finish: Sadler medium blue industrial machinery enamel on steam cleaned phosphated steel.
Controls: Control panel pre-engineered for standard up or down travel in "auto" mode with safety interlocks for platform and feed conveyors. Reversing controls and additional field devices available as optional extra.
Installation and Assembly: Each vertical conveyor is pre-wired, pre-tested with feed conveyors and shipped completely assembled by dedicated truck or container. When not completely assembled at the factory, modules fit together quickly and easily . Work can be done by your crew under our supervision or entirely by Sadler's installation specialists.
