Dorner’s new C3 belted curve conveyor offers an economical and gentle material handling solution for production line configurations with curves and turns. 
Be the First to Know When the New C3 is Officially Launched!

Gentle Material Handling for Confectionery & Packaged Goods

Designed with the low-profile frame Dorner is known for, the C3 brings innovation to belted conveyor systems with a patented curved belt and drive system. With small pulleys, this conveyor offers accurate product transfers for parts as small as 2 inches. This unique construction offers smooth curves for delicate materials and products while maintaining positioning accuracy through turns. Unlike traditional 90° transfers, the C3 keeps the leading edge consistent through the curve to ensure products are correctly positioned for the next step down the processing line. The simplified configuration also eliminates the need for straight infeed and outfeed conveyors, which are required in modular belted curves.

The C3 conveyor is also Dorner’s first conveyor platform that is designed to be compatible with our industrial belted conveyors and AquaGard LP sanitary conveyor series. With a stainless steel bed plate and FDA-approved plastic components, the C3 is BISCC certified for baked goods, confectionery, and packaged foods.

Minimal Downtime

Like Dorner's other conveyor systems, the C3 is designed for easy maintenance with quick belt change features. The compatibility with other Dorner standard offerings also means spare parts are readily available and shipped to your facility with the industry's fastest lead times.

What makes the C3 Different?

The Compact Curve Conveyor series offers an intermediary option for curved conveyance lines that would otherwise require the more expensive and higher-profile modular belt platform. In confectionery and packaged goods where wider transfers and uneven belt surfaces risk damaging delicate product, the C3 provides the flexibility needed to optimize floor space, while ensuring accurate product orientation and consistent quality. With standard configurations of 45°, 90°, and 180°, this new conveyor helps you create flexible production lines to make the most of limited floor space.

As the latest addition to Dorner’s belted conveyor family, the C3 is also designed with ease of maintenance and longevity in mind. The side-driven sprocket design allows the C3 to operate with minimal tension, making belt changes and routine maintenance quick and easy while reducing operational wear.
