The VBT3 3-Strand 90° V-Belt Transfer Conveyor uses multiple “B” section v-belts mounted on a formed transfer arm to redirect medium duty products at right angles between conveyor runs. V-belt transfers are appropriate where product surfaces are delicate or may be marred by metal chain strands, providing a softer interface while maintaining controlled directional change.
This unit can be configured with a center drive for reversible operation and includes heavy duty bearings and a right angle gear motor sized for continuous operation. Pneumatic lift components position the belts into the product path, and standard lengths accommodate common conveyor layouts.
Applications
- Right angle transfers between parallel conveyor runs
- Product routing to multiple downstream lines
- Pallet turning or reorientation within a conveyor cell
- Carton diverting in accumulation or sortation areas
- Controlled transfers in limited floor space layouts
Industries
- Manufacturing and assembly operations
- Distribution and fulfillment centers
- Packaging and converting facilities
- Food and beverage processing
- Consumer goods and industrial products handling
