In the packaging industry, many production areas are washed down and sanitized everyday and require the use of stainless steel equipment. This is especially the case in food processing plants where equipment must be washable from the process to the packaging.
Trio Pac packaging conveyors are built using a stainless steel frame and corrosion resistant components in an “easy to clean” design.
Table Top or Mat Top stainless steel packaging conveyors are used in bottling and packaging to carry cases at high speed without embossing the bottom of the case like roller conveyors will do.

- Plastic belt conveyor

Trio Pac also custom builds packaging conveyors to meet your specifications.
Accumulation conveyors are designed to allow accumulation of cases. They will act as a buffer between two machines and they should be able to give back the accumulated products to the line and return to normal running speed when the accumulating event is over. Stainless steel packaging conveyors are ideal for bottling and packaging while providing for accumulation to occur without affecting the overall output process
For case or carton conveyors, the two most popular ways of accumulating are low back pressure accumulation and zero pressure accumulation.
Stainless steel pallet accumulation conveyors are also available from Trio Pac.
Rotating cases or cartons on a conveyor is often required for labelling, coding or wrapping. Product size, weight, finish and speed will determine the choice of turning device.
Besides the classic bumper or the 90° pusher, Trio Pac offers different and more dynamic solutions to case turning:
- Two parallel stainless steel conveyors with independent drives.
Using a different belt speed between the two conveyors, cases travelling on the conveyor will rotate on itself.
- Curve with two parallel Table Top chains.
A 90° curve conveyor with two Table Top chains running side by side and driven from the same drive.
Trio Pac plastic belt conveyor is fitted with Intralox S400 Ball Belt. The belt is covered with free rolling balls each having a portion extending above the top surface.
