The Z-shaped angled conveyor belts of type ZL-HF 310 combine the entire conveyor technology know-how from five decades of experience and countless projects. Both belt bends are independently adjustable and continuously adjustable between 0° and 60°. A unique feature worldwide is that the belt tension remains constant across this entire adjustment range. This is achieved via mechanical sliders that precisely move the deflection roller in the lower feed area.

In conjunction with the high-quality MTF conveyor belts, the belt tension compensation ensures that belt buckling is minimized and thus wear is prevented. A Z-shaped conveyor belt can thus be converted into a straight conveyor belt in just a few seconds. This is achieved via mechanical sliders that precisely move the deflection roller in the lower feed area. The Z-shaped belt conveyors of the type ZL-HF 310 are used, among other things, for transporting material out of machines or for feeding material for further processing. This type is particularly suitable when steep belt lengths of up to approximately 2,500 mm and relatively short upper flat belt lengths are required. The gas pressure springs integrated into the base frame of the Z-conveyor enable easy adjustment of the conveyor angle. This makes this conveyor technology particularly suitable for applications where the discharge height must be adjusted frequently (e.g., due to different container heights).

The upper flat belt of the Z-conveyor protrudes freely forward, but can be additionally supported if necessary (e.g., for larger loads or longer flat belt sections). The lower flat belt section rests on the base frame, forming a stable, closed frame. This makes even larger conveyor belts easy to handle.

The minimum feed height from the floor to the top edge of the standard feed hopper is approximately 400 mm. If necessary, the HB 310 base frame can be used alternatively with the Z-conveyor, in which the lower flat belt section is set lower. This allows for lower feed heights.

Conveyor technology of this type is used in many areas where parts need to be removed from production machines, such as in stamping shops, the plastics and electrical industries, surface treatment plants, etc. They are also often used to feed components into further processing machines in the food industry or as feed belts for recycling plants and mills.

As with all MTF Multi-Tech conveyor belts, the angle of the Z-conveyor is continuously adjustable between 0° and 60°. The belt tension remains constant across the entire adjustment range thanks to the belt tension compensation system patented by MTF Technik. This advantage also makes it possible, for example, to adjust the angle of the Z-conveyor pneumatically or electrically to adapt the discharge height to the process (drop height reduction).

Z-conveyor belts of type ZL-HF 310 are equipped as standard with conically turned drive and deflection rollers. This ensures a self-centering effect of the conveyor belts, eliminating the need for mechanical guides. The belts have space laterally within the profiles. This reduces wear and tear. and abrasion are effectively reduced and the service life of the conveyor belts is increased.

A wide variety of conveyor belts made of different materials with different surface structures and properties are available from the MTF Technik standard program and can be mounted on these devices. If required, additional special belts can be provided.

The Multi-Tech angled conveyor belts type ZL-HF 310 can be equipped with five different drive units, which, in combination with various gear reductions and controls, ensure optimal adaptation to the conveying task.

Building on the basic equipment, a wide range of accessories and equipment elements such as metal detectors, fans, cooling systems, heaters, ionization devices, conveyor belt covers, sensors, chutes, separation attachments, etc. can be added.
