GSI En-Masse conveyors offer many features to maximize performance and reduce operation costs. These conveyors feature easy access to all vital hardware. All of GSI’s conveyors are highly corrosion resistant and come standard with a powder coat finish for lasting durability and superior appearance.
Tail Section
Extended mount flange bearings on 12” and 14” tall conveyors. External mount pillow block bearings on 20” (508mm) tall conveyors. Heavy duty chain tension take-up system utilizing corrosion resistant acme threaded screws. Flame cut hardened steel sprockets. Split hubs available. Maintenance friendly, bolted access to allow removal of the shaft, sprocket, and bearings as an assembly. 10 gauge housing on 12” and 14” conveyors, 7 gauge on 20” conveyors. Tail shafts are turned ground and polished.
Head Section
Extended mount flange bearings on 12” and 14” tall conveyors. External mount pillow block bearings on 20” tall conveyors. Machined .25” thick UHMW shaft seals. Flame cut hardened steel sprockets. Split hubs available. Maintenance friendly, bolted access to allow removal of the shaft, sprocket, and bearings as an assembly. 10 gauge housing on 12” and 14” conveyors, 7 gauge on 20” conveyors. Head shafts are turned ground and polished.
Trough Section Features
Dust and weather tight, heavy gauge, peaked covers on head, tail and intermediate trough. Abrasion resistant steel wear liners with recessed fasteners for removal or replacement. Bolted removable bottom construction. Standard 10 gauge (3.41mm) intermediate trough sides. Trough sections are fixture assembled for accurate alignment and ease of installation. Trough sections are flanged with structural angle to provide rigidity and accurate alignment. Standard roller chain engineered for each specific conveyor to maximize working load and expected life. UHMW flights prevent steel to steel contact. UHMW return rollers with shafts bolted to trough for easy maintenance and replacement are standard on 12” to 14” tall conveyors. Rail returns are standard on all 20” tall conveyors. Rails are lined with .25” abrasion resistant steel and tapered end to end to minimize flight wear and maximize cleaning. Rails overlap at flange connections for smooth operation.
