A smooth packaging process is important to ensure consistent production rates, limit operator intervention and guarantee the quality of finished products.
Among the various pieces of equipment that make up a packaging line, the conveyor belt is an essential component. CDA offers customised conveyor belts designed to fit perfectly with your filling, capping and labelling machines.
The Advantages of a Stainless Steel Conveyor
A stainless steel conveyor offers several major benefits for production and packaging lines:
- Strength and durability: stainless steel resists corrosion (particularly valuable in chemical environments) and withstands demanding industrial use.
- Excellent hygiene : essential for food production, stainless steel conveyors are easy to clean and feature smooth surfaces with minimal retention areas.
- Easy integration : CDA conveyors can be connected effortlessly to existing packaging lines, even when machines are from different manufacturers.
CDA Conveyors : Custom Integration for Every Line
CDA conveyors are designed as modular components that integrate perfectly with your equipment.
A wide range of options allows for tailor-made configuration:
- Standard height: 925 mm, adjustable to match your production setup.
- Adjustable length to suit different layouts.
- Chain widths of 82.6 mm, 114 mm, or 190 mm, ideal for handling larger containers such as jerry cans or buckets.
- Standard linear configuration, but also available in U-shaped or L-shaped layouts for complex production spaces.
ALU Conveyors : Flexibility and Modularity for Labelling Lines
In addition to stainless steel conveyors, CDA also offers aluminium conveyors, available exclusively for labelling machines.
They feature two key advantages:
- Enhanced flexibility: thanks to an integrated groove, options and accessories can be added after manufacturing without drilling or tapping, making it easy to adapt your line as your needs evolve.
- Optimised rigidity : despite their lightweight design, aluminium conveyors ensure stable and reliable label application.
ALU conveyors are therefore an ideal choice for producers seeking a modular and scalable packaging solution.
A Key Asset for Both Artisan Producers and Industrial Lines
- For small producers : a stainless steel conveyor helps streamline operations, linking machines together safely and efficiently.
- For industrial production lines : it is essential to support high throughputs and maintain consistent product flow.
Integrating a stainless steel conveyor into your production process is a long-term investment in productivity, hygiene and quality.
With decades of expertise, CDA designs and manufactures bespoke conveyors that integrate perfectly with its filling, capping and labelling systems.
