Conveying Systems
The NEXGEN line of EZ-TRAX™ conveyors accommodates a wide variety of bulky
materials and scrap handling applications — above and below ground — and includes
light-duty slider beds, heavy-duty steel belt conveyors, and complete turn-key MRF
conveyor systems.
• Sliderbed Conveyors — Friction-driven conveyors with a belt supporting bed for
low- to medium-volume bulk material handling applications from 2 to 15 tons/hour.
These conveyors can be used for baler and compactor feeds, for sorting lines,
and as components of a MRF system.
• Combination Belt Conveyors — A chain drive system incorporated with a rubber
belt for medium- to high-volume applications ranging from 5 to 30 tons/hour.
• Hinged Steelbelt Conveyors — Designed for medium- to heavy-duty applications
such as precrusher or compactor feeds, paper, solid waste, large scrap baler feeds,
mixed waste lines, and white goods. Each joint has a tapered roller and chain that
rides on a track driven by 5 to 25 HP motors.
• Apron and N-Pan Belt Conveyors — For the most demanding, high-impact, heavyduty operations such as transfer stations, scrap, MSW and C&D lines, mixed waste
lines, and abrasive materials moving at 20 to 50 tons/hour.
• Trough Conveyors — Designed to convey material at higher speeds. The rubber belt
rides on angled rollers or idlers that form a trough. Can be used for light- to mediumduty baler, compactor, and shredder feed systems.
