AM-C Curved Modular Chain Conveyor


The curved AM-C with plastic modular chain is the right solution to convey products through a curve without a change to their orientation on the belt. The model can be made to measurement for any angle between 15 and 180° that has to be bridged.

It comes in a very slim design. Because of the small inner radius it can be used in confined spaces. The frame is only 18 mm wider than the chain itself. Also at the deflecting roller, the brackets only add 44 mm of width. The whole height including the chain is only 95 mm.

In 4 to 6 days the AM-C can be produced in 4 different chain widths between 147 and 607 mm.

Ist plastic modular chain can be easily cleaned and is especially hard wearing. Any broken or worn links can be exchanged individually, which allows rapid maintenance.

Before and after the curved part itself, a straight part should always be planned in to guarantee a smooth running of the belt. The minimum length is 500 mm each. Longer straight distances can of course also be included in the layout.

With the wide range of GEPPERT accessories available, the AM-C can easily be adapted to almost any specific need. You will find more information on available accessories under the column “Lot of Accessories”.

The equip the AM-C with a support system, we reccomend to use the two legged aluminium design as shown on this page. It is infinitely adjustable in height and should be used in a number corresponding with the total length of the system.
