Model "TSB" Trough Slider Bed Belt Conveyor
Trough Slider Bed Belt Conveyor
ACSI Model TSB is a trough-style slider bed belt conveyor with integral vertical sides that help contain boxes, bags, cases, and compatible loose parts. The formed trough provides continuous belt support while reducing the need for separate guard rails, making the model useful for elevated runs and applications where product containment matters. Belt width, product size, loading method, and required discharge should be reviewed together.
8″–30″ belt widths · 2-1/2″ integral side walls · Boxes, bags, loose parts
