Conveyor Belts Built for Packaging

Efficient packaging is a vital part of any successful production line. Once products have been manufactured, checked and consolidated, they need to move quickly, safely and reliably into the next stage of the process.

At UPM Conveyors, we design and manufacture bespoke packing conveyor systems to help businesses improve product flow, reduce manual handling and keep operations running smoothly. From lightweight product handling to tote filling, bagging lines and multi-level conveyor systems, our packaging conveyor solutions are built around your site, your products and your production targets.

Custom Packaging Conveyor Systems

No two packaging lines are exactly the same. That is why we work hard to tailor systems designed to suit different products, industries, layouts and working environments.
Our packaging conveyor systems can be designed to support:

  • Product transfer
  • Picking and packing operations
  • Bagging machine integration
  • Tote filling and accumulation
  • Food-safe product handling
  • Multi-level production layouts
  • Small footprint manufacturing spaces
  • Secondary conveyors for packaging lines

Whether you need a standalone conveyor or a fully integrated handling system, we can create a solution that fits your process.

Modular Belt Conveyors for Packaging

Modular belt conveyors are a flexible and reliable choice for packaging environments. Systems such as HMPWE modular belt conveyors can be configured to suit a wide range of layouts, including horizontal, inclined, vertical and multi-conveyor arrangements.

They are especially useful where production lines need to adapt to different product types, packaging formats or available floor space. Food-approved options can also be supplied for industries where hygiene, safety and easy cleaning are essential.

Vertical Tote Filling Systems

For manufacturers that need accurate product control and efficient accumulation, we have developed a vertical tote accumulation system designed to optimise product flow with an injection moulding machine.

This system includes:

  • Static removal with air ionisers
  • CAT 3 safety Pilze relay
  • Short circuit current rating
  • KA-rated and UL-listed components
  • Allen Bradley inverter drives
  • PLC control

The system is designed to isolate products effectively, helping improve control, accuracy, and reliability in the packaging process.

An auto-reject flip flap can be fitted within the equipment and linked to the control system, allowing operators to adjust parameters when required. This precise rejection system helps ensure that only acceptable products are transferred into the tote boxes for distribution.

Twin Swan Neck Conveyors to Bagging Machines

A twin swan neck conveyor is ideal for moving lightweight products from one level to another, helping improve workflow, packing efficiency and space utilisation.

The dual conveyor belts allow more units to be transferred efficiently, making this system suitable for handling snack foods, lightweight containers, and other packaged products. These systems can be designed with food-approved belts, quick-release conveyor belts for easier cleaning, variable-speed control, and stainless-steel support frames.

This makes them a practical choice for industries such as:

  • Food manufacturing
  • Pharmaceutical production
  • Medical device manufacturing
  • Consumer goods packaging
  • Lightweight product handling

Packaging Conveyors Designed Around Your Site

Every UPM Conveyors packaging system is developed to suit the customer’s production requirements. Using 3D CAD design software, we can plan and visualise conveyor systems before manufacture, helping ensure the final installation meets the correct specifications.

We have designed bespoke packaging equipment for a variety of customers, including systems for Blackdown Growers and a vertical conveyor solution for a medical injection device specialist. This helped speed up the handling and packaging process while providing an effective solution for a small production footprint.
