Bunker Conveyor:

Bunker conveyors are widely used for steep-incline conveying. The conveyed material is transported to a required height to existing insertion and sorter machines by the bunker conveyor.  Typical applications for bunker conveyors is the batch feeding of parts like pellets, capsules, sleeves and caps.

The funnel is made of stainless steel by default but can be modified after consultation. Typical for sfb Fördertechnik are the numerous options for individualisation like belt and slat types or custom-built special-purpose models.
