Introduction
Component groups
The basic FlexLink conveyor structure consists of five
component groups:
•
support structure
•
conveyor beams, straight sections and bends
•
drive and idler units
•
chain
•
other accessories (guide rail, drip trays etc.)
The first step in the assembly process is to assemble the
support structure, which consists of feet, support beams
and beam connectors. Most conveyor support designs
are based on vertical support beams combined, if neces-
sary, with horizontal support beams. There are also a
number of different feet and beam connectors, so check
which ones are used in your application. Some examples
are shown below.
IMPORTANT
You must work in accordance with your layout, and make
sure that the conveyor is supported at regular intervals
not exceeding 3 m.
