Smalte Conveyor Solutions recently worked with Nord Drivesystems to supply a client with Nord’s nsd tupH drive.

According to Smalte, the drive ticked all the boxes for the client’s production area. It offers a cleaner design, with the added benefit of using standard flanges in case of urgent breakdowns and availability of parts.

It's also suitable to harsh wash-downs.

The client quickly saw the benefits, particularly in terms of its hygiene requirements.

Thirteen conveyors were provided in the first stage, with a second order received for an additional 11 conveyors.

All-new Smalte conveyors will now be supplied with Nord geared motors, with nsd tupH surface protection throughout the facility for standardisation purposes.
