The Moducon Belt Conveyor is a lightweight, mobile convey-  
or that can be rolled into place and used to move parts or  
materials to or from your process.  
WHAT IS THE  
BELT CONVEYOR?  
Because of its modular construction, the conveyor can be built  
in virtually any shape, length and width to fit your  
application.  
Standard belt design is durable modular link polypropylene.  
The patented design compensates for belt stretch that causes  
slack, a common problem in other conveyor designs.  
Permanent belt tracking ensures no wear on belt edges. The  
belt system is easy to modify or repair by simply replacing  
individual links or flights in the belt.  
The Conair Belt Conveyor Moducon series is simple to oper-  
ate. Just move it into position, adjust the height and plug it in.  
The variable speed control lets you set the belt speed to the  
desired rate. The optional flights move parts along the inclined  
belt.  
Moducon Belt Conveyors are ideal for:  
TYPICAL  
APPLICATIONS  
Conveying parts removed from a mold by a robot or  
sprue picker.  
Carrying scrap or sprues to a granulator for recovery  
Conveying parts from the processing machine to an  
assembly area.  
As the application changes, the conveying length can be easily  
modified by adding or subtracting side panels, belt links and  
belt flights.

OPTIONS  
Belt types  
Open belt - This belt has a 1-inch pitch  
with an open design that allows faster  
parts cooling. You can increase the cool-  
ing rate with optional fans mounted  
beneath the belt. Belt widths start at 3  
inches (76 mm) and increase in 3-inch increments to 36  
inches (914 mm). All belt designs can be fitted with 1-, 2-  
or 3-inch flights. The open belt is available in polypropy-  
lene, polyamide (nylon) and acetal. Choose color: blue,  
gray, red, black or white.  
Side flexing belt - this 1-inch pitch  
side flexing belt has a turning inside  
radius of 2.3 times the belt width. This  
belt can be fitted with flights and rub-  
ber gripper sections. The side flexing belt material is  
available in polypropylene, polyamide (nylon) and acetal.  
Choose color: blue, gray, red, black or white.  
Flights  
Flights set at regular intervals in the belt  
help hold the part in place on an incline or  
decline of the conveyor. Optional flights  
are available in heights of 1, 2 or 3 inches.  
The application determines the distance between flights.  
Side flexing units  
Optional side flexing modules with a  
90 bend can be added to flat or inclined  
°
conveyors.  
Gripper sections  
Optional grippers help hold the part in  
place as it moves along the conveyor. The  
rubber grip face is available on the side  
flexing belt.  
Bed plates  
When conveying heavy products — weighing 11 lb  
(5 kg) or more — bed plates can be added to provide  
more support.  
Stainless steel belt connector pins  
When conveying heavy products, the optional stainless  
steel connector pins provide better support than standard  
plastic pins. Choose when the conveyor may be exposed  
to moisture or water.

Plan the location. Make sure the area where the belt conveyor  
is installed has the following:  
PREPARING FOR  
INSTALLATION  
A grounded power source. The belt conveyor  
requires single phase, 100-115V, 50/60 Hz. All wiring  
should be completed by qualified electrical technicians
