Considering the Flat Belt Conveyor?

PCB handling equipment moves bare and populated boards between process steps — loading magazines, conveying, buffering, turning, inverting and unloading. It is the connective tissue of an SMT line: the machines that decide whether printers, placement and reflow run continuously or wait on an operator.

Flat Belt Conveyor

PROMATION's FBC flat belt conveyors transport PCBs into or out of reflow ovens, cleaners, or for progressive assembly of sub-components. Models support progressive indexing or continuous flow with programmable special functions.

Both look-across and look-down sensing configurations are available. Operators receive full alerts when the belt reaches capacity and requires unloading. A small roller (nose bar) at entrance or exit minimizes gaps between process machines.

Questions

About the Flat Belt Conveyor

What is the pass line height of the Flat Belt Conveyor?

Pass Line Height: 950mm nominal +/- 30mm. The full specification table for the Flat Belt Conveyor is published on this page — we do not keep specs in PDFs or images.

How much does the Flat Belt Conveyor cost?

Price depends on the configuration rather than the base machine — tooling, fixturing, feeders and options move it more than the model does. Tell us the part and the volume and we will send the range for a build that suits it, along with lead time from US stock.

What is the lead time on the Flat Belt Conveyor?

PROMATION USA holds pcb handling in US stock, so a lead time is usually a delivery date rather than an ocean shipment. Configuration and testing happen here before the machine ships, and the engineers who set it up are the ones who support it afterwards.

Can we see the Flat Belt Conveyor run our part before we buy?

Yes. Send us the board, the fluid or the fastener and our IPC-certified engineers will run it on the Flat Belt Conveyor, film the result, and return cycle times and joint quality alongside a quote. There is no cost and no obligation.

Is the Flat Belt Conveyor SMEMA compatible?

Yes. SMEMA handshaking is standard across the PCB handling range, so the Flat Belt Conveyor drops into an existing line alongside other manufacturers' printers, placement and reflow equipment without custom integration work.
