Norpak Handling is an authorized Hytrol Integration Partner, which means it supplies Hytrol Conveyor Company’s innovative systems to Canadian businesses. One example is the Model PCX low-profile, portable-parts conveyor. This industrial belt conveyor is one of the most adaptable material-handling products available, due to its ability to enhance operational efficiency and offer high value to users in many different industries. This is a must-have for many companies.

Made for small items

Hytrol designed the PCX to catch small components – like steel, plastic, or aluminum stampings – from under an extruding machine or punch press and then convey them up into a hopper or bin during the production cycle. This industrial belt conveyor is portable, so users can easily move it out from its position for cleaning, maintenance, or use in another area. Different sizes and measurements are available to work with various applications and other types of conveyors.

For years, the PCX has been one of the most popular conveyors that Norpak supplies, due to its unique versatility and utility. Hytrol’s skilled engineers maximize convenience and efficiency in this conveyor, making it ideal for users in various industries. The manufacturer also tests every PCX unit before sale to make sure it works properly; the belt is already tracked, and the drive and tail pulleys contain sealed ball bearings that are greased for life. Norpak ships this industrial belt conveyor completely assembled, so users need only to adjust supports for the required height.

Three standard belt widths are available – 12, 18, and 24 inches – for four separate models, with lengths ranging from 30 to 111¾ inches. Other specifications of the PCX include the following:

• Maximum load capacity: 100 pounds
• Belt speed: constant 25-feet-per-minute maximum
• Motor: ½ horsepower
• End drive: located on discharge end, with chain guard on left-hand side
• Drive pulley and tail pulley: both four inches in diameter
