SLAT CONVEYORS
Slat conveyors are predominantly used, and are ideal in such industries as food and pharmaceuticals,
where rapid speed and accuracy is of the utmost importance, plus they also have the ability to be
washed down for hygiene purposes.

Their construction is either an acetal or stainless steel slat, side flexing for bend sections. The most
widely used in the food industry is acetal (usually a cheaper option than stainless).
The advantage of using slats, is that they can open up slightly around a bend, therefore a very tight
radius can be achieved - usually 2.5 times the width (as a rule of thumb). As mentioned above, the
slats are usually manufactured from acetal (a hard, heat resistant plastic) or stainless steel, and range
from a width of approximately 80mm to 300mm.

Because of their width, they will usually be mounted on tripod support stands with floor levelling
adjustability, and can come complete with adjustable side guides (if required).
Because of the low friction, Slat Conveyors can be ideal for the accumulation of products awaiting to
enter machines such as labellers and packaging machines.
