Original Press Release:
Conveyor Ideal for Fragile Product
ERIE, PA - May 2003 - Eriez' variable speed E-Z Slide Conveyor moves fragile products with a gentle sliding motion. The new HMC-18 model uses a counter rotating weight drive system so the product remains stationary as it is carried forward, then instantly slides along the tray surface as the drive quickly reverses its action. This mid-drive conveyor has its quiet 1 HP drive mounted below the center of the tray eliminating infeed and discharge obstruction with up to 48 inches of clear overhang.
The conveyor's sliding motion reduces product damage and oily particle build up from coatings being shaken off, providing wide application in the food processing industry. The E-Z Slide is capable of moving product 40 feet per minute, comes standard with a sanitary stainless steel tray ranging up to 24 inches wide and 10 feet long and can be suspended overhead.
The quiet, non-vibratory operation of the E-Z Slide also improves handling of small castings and powdered metal parts in foundry and metalworking environments.
