● Flights
Flights set at regular intervals in the belt
help hold the part in place on an incline or
decline of the conveyor. Optional flights
are available in heights of 1, 2 or 3 inches.
The application determines the distance between flights.
● Gripper sections
Optional grippers help hold the part in
place as it moves along the conveyor. The
rubber grip face is available on the side
flexing belt.
● Bed plates
When conveying heavy products — weighing 11 lb
(5 kg) or more — bed plates can be added to provide
more support.
