Component Specifications

Definition
A tray frame is a rigid structural component that forms the foundation of product trays in conveyor systems. It provides mechanical support, maintains dimensional stability under load, and ensures proper alignment within the conveyor mechanism. Engineered to withstand dynamic stresses during material transport, it interfaces with rollers, chains, or belts while accommodating various tray configurations.
Working Principle
The tray frame operates as a load-bearing structure that distributes weight evenly across the conveyor system. It maintains geometric integrity through rigid connections, preventing deformation during acceleration/deceleration cycles. The frame's design minimizes vibration transmission and allows for smooth product transfer between conveyor segments.
Materials
Carbon steel (ASTM A36), Stainless steel (304/316), Aluminum alloy (6061-T6), Engineering plastics (Polyamide, UHMW-PE) for specific applications.
Technical Parameters
  • Weight 2-15 kg
  • Load Capacity 50-500 kg
  • Surface Finish Powder coating, Galvanization, Passivation
  • Frame Dimensions Customizable (Typical: 600x400mm to 1200x800mm)
  • Corrosion Resistance Class C3-C5 per ISO 12944
  • Operating Temperature -20°C to 80°C
Standards
ISO 18601, DIN 15155, ISO 5053-1
