HMWPE Conveyors
UPM developed plastic conveyors with the side frames produced from High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (HMWPE). This was made to eliminate the need for belt tracking and tensioning.The side frames are cut on an in-house router together with the machining of channels either side of the frames to locate the belt. This offers an ideal solution for changing the angle, or swan neck conveyor arrangements. Ensuring quick belt release for ease of clean down, achievable via manually operated tension release arms that operate via the top dead centre logic. This allows all aspects of the conveyor to be cleaned without the need for any special tools. Meaning this is a direct benefit to the operator in ease of maintaining a high care area, particularly for food applications.
UPM offer a free advisory service to their clients, resulting in a bespoke customer engineered solution, which then results in a Performance Guarantee. Allowing peace of mind with reliability and trouble free operation.
