Flexible Design Solutions to Handle Any Application
MPI’s Steel Hinge Belt Conveyor is a heavy-duty conveying solution that handles sharp, hot, or abrasive materials such as metal scrap, stamping slugs, die-cast parts, fasteners, forgings, and turnings. Built with interlocking steel belt segments mounted to robust side wings and cleats, this conveyor is engineered for rugged metalworking, machining, and recycling applications. The hinged steel belt resists damage from impact, heat, and cutting forces, making it ideal for harsh environments where rubber or fabric belts fail. In various configurations and discharge angles, MPI’s Steel Hinge Belt Conveyor streamlines material removal, improves operator safety, and boosts operational uptime.
Benefits of the Steel Hinge Belt Conveyor From Magnetic Products, Inc
All-Steel Construction
Handles hot, sharp, oily, or heavy materials that would damage traditional belts.
Impact-Resistant Hinge Belt Design
Each steel link absorbs shock loads and prevents belt puncture or tearing.
Oil and Coolant-Resistant Operation
Perfect for metal cutting, machining, and stamping lines where fluids are present.
Reinforced Side Wings and Cleats
Prevents spillage and guides scrap or parts up inclines.
Custom Discharge Heights and Inclines
Optimized to fit bins, hoppers, furnaces, or downstream systems.
Low Maintenance and Long Lifespan
Minimal downtime compared to belt-driven alternatives in heavy-duty use.
Magnetic or Non-Magnetic Options
An integrated magnetic bed is available to capture and retain ferrous parts.
Hinged Access Covers and Clean-Out Areas
Streamlines service and maintenance in messy environments.
Steel Hinge Belt Conveyor Product Details
How It Works
Scrap or Parts Enter Infeed Section
Material falls or is fed into the conveyor’s infeed zone, typically from a press, machine, or hopper.
Steel Hinge Belt Moves Material
A chain or sprocket system drives the interlocking steel plates, advancing the load.
Cleats Guide Material Up Incline
Cleats mounted on the belt push material upward on inclined configurations.
Coolant or Oil Drainage
Optional perforated plates allow fluid to drain into catch pans below the conveyor.
Discharge to Bin or Process
Material exits the conveyor at a designated height and is entered into a tote, bin, furnace, or crusher.
Repeat, Heavy-Duty Operation
Built to withstand 24/7 operation with minimal intervention.
