The Z-shaped angled conveyor belts of type ZL-HF 340 combine all the conveyor technology know-how gained from five decades of experience and countless projects. Both belt bends are independent of each other and each infinitely 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 pulley in the lower feed area.

In conjunction with the high-quality MTF conveyor belts, the belt tension compensation ensures that belt bulging 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 infeed area. Like the HF 310 base unit, the HF 340 also features two gas springs that support the inclined belt, ensuring convenient angle adjustment. The difference lies in the additional substructure of the entire base frame, allowing for greater infeed heights. This is particularly relevant where the conveyor technology is used at manual workstations and parts are fed onto the belt manually. In these situations, an ergonomic working height is crucial. This conveyor belt design is also used in many areas where parts from production machines are transferred to the belt conveyor and the transfer heights are correspondingly high. This is the case, for example, with many packaging machines or testing machines, etc. As with all MTF Multi-Tech angle conveyors, the belt angle can be continuously adjusted between 0° and 60°. Thanks to the patented belt tension compensation, the running surface tension remains constant across the entire angle adjustment range. As standard, the ZL-HF 340 Z-type conveyors are equipped with tapered drive and idler rollers. This creates a self-centering effect for the conveyor belts, eliminating the need for mechanical guides. The belts have lateral clearance within the profiles. This effectively reduces wear and abrasion and increases the service life of the conveyor belts. A wide variety of conveyor belts made from different materials with varying surface structures and properties are available from the MTF Technik standard range and can be mounted on these devices. Additional special belts can be provided if required. The Multi-Tech angle conveyor belts type ZL-HF 340 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 configuration, a wide range of accessories and equipment such as metal detectors, fans, cooling systems, heaters, ionization devices, conveyor belt covers, sensors, chutes, separating attachments, etc., can be added.
