Canteen Line Chery Drive RAS113

A canteen line drive forms the backbone of a self-service counter, moving trays past heated wells, refrigerated sections and dispensers so that each diner collects a complete meal without queueing at separate stations. The BHS Canteen Line Chery drive automates that movement, replacing manual tray-pushing with a motorised belt that keeps pace with service demand. Operators load trays at one end, diners lift them at the other, and the belt runs continuously or in controlled bursts, matching the rhythm of the kitchen behind it.

The sequence begins with the operator placing a tray on the belt at the loading station. A start button or foot pedal advances the belt, carrying the tray past each module in turn: heated wells for hot dishes, refrigerated wells for salads and desserts, cutlery dispensers and condiment stations. Diners lift their trays at the unloading end, and the empty belt returns beneath the counter to begin the cycle again. Speed is adjustable to suit service volume, and the belt surface is designed to grip trays securely without marking them.

Construction is stainless steel throughout, chosen for hygiene and durability in a high-traffic canteen. The 7389 mm length allows multiple service modules to be mounted side by side, creating a continuous counter that can be extended or reconfigured as menu requirements change. The 700 mm width fits standard tray sizes and leaves room for operators to work comfortably, while the 900 mm height matches standard worktop levels for seamless integration with existing kitchen equipment.

Cleaning follows from the materials and construction: the stainless steel surfaces are wiped down with sanitiser after each service, and the belt is lifted or removed for thorough cleaning at the end of the day. No additional maintenance is required beyond routine belt tension checks and motor lubrication as specified in the manual.

The Canteen Line Chery drive is positioned in the BHS catalogue under modular canteen systems, where it serves as the motorised core for custom-built service counters.
