UVC Tunnel Conveyor — Auto Disinfectant
Belt System by Autocoat Engineering
Autocoat Engineering's Auto Disinfectant UVC Tunnel Conveyor provides continuous, online UVC disinfection of bags, purses, courier boxes, tiffin bags, laptops and other everyday carried items — without chemicals or water. UVC light at <280 nm destroys the DNA of surface viruses and bacteria as items pass through the enclosed germicidal tunnel. Multiple models available for facilities ranging from 30 to 1,000+ persons per shift. Developed jointly with Dhanvanthri Engineers Pvt. Ltd.
About the UVC Tunnel Conveyor
UV light is classified into three primary types: UVA (315–400 nm), UVB (280–315 nm) and UVC (<280 nm). UVC is the most germicidal band — when absorbed by the nucleic acids of bacteria and viruses, it disrupts their DNA, preventing replication and rendering them non-infectious. Applied in a controlled enclosed tunnel, UVC is an effective, repeatable, and chemical-free method of surface disinfection for high-traffic facilities.
Autocoat Engineering, drawing on 35 years of experience manufacturing conveyor systems and industrial ovens, has developed the Auto Disinfectant UVC Tunnel Conveyor for continuous online disinfection of bags, courier boxes, laptops and other items at any high-footfall entry point. The system is designed to handle steady flows of people and goods without slowing throughput — an automated hygiene barrier that operates silently in the background of daily operations. See also: Auto Disinfectant UV Box and UV Tower for room and individual item disinfection.
As items travel through the enclosed germicidal tunnel on the conveyor belt, UVC lamps emit short-wavelength ultraviolet C light (<280 nm) that is absorbed by the nucleic acids of viruses and bacteria on the outer surfaces of items. This absorption disrupts their DNA — destroying cell structure and characteristics of pathogens — making items safe to handle immediately on exit. The entire process is completed in minutes, is completely dry and chemical-free, and causes zero damage to leather, fabric, electronics, or cardboard packaging.
Auto Disinfectant UVC Conveyor — Key Features
Autocoat's UVC Tunnel Conveyor incorporates the following design features for safe, effective, and continuous online germicidal disinfection. See related products: UV Radiations system for area disinfection, UV Box for individual items.
- Continuous online disinfectionAutomated conveyor operation provides uninterrupted UVC disinfection at entry and exit points — no manual handling, no queues, no slowdown of people or goods flow.

UVC Tunnel Conveyor — Where It Can Be Installed
The Auto Disinfectant UVC Tunnel Conveyor is recommended for any high-footfall entry point where bags and carried items require rapid, continuous disinfection as part of a workplace or facility hygiene protocol:
🏢 Corporate Offices & IT Parks
Large IT parks and corporate campuses — with 1,000+ employees per building — handle a continuous inflow of staff, contractors, couriers and visitors throughout the day. Employee temperature checks at entry verify personal health but leave bags, laptops and tiffin bags unchecked. These carried items routinely travel on crowded public transport and can carry surface pathogens into a clean office environment. Installing a UVC Tunnel Conveyor at the entry gate provides a fast, automated hygiene barrier — every bag is disinfected in seconds as it passes through, without slowing the morning inflow or requiring any manual handling.
🏭 Large Factories & Industrial Facilities
Every factory with 30 or more employees benefits from an automated disinfection barrier at the main entry point. Factory workers in India typically commute by crowded public transport — buses, local trains, shared autos — where bags, purses and tiffin bags are in constant contact with other passengers. Deploying a UVC Tunnel Conveyor at the factory entrance ensures that bags are disinfected before entering the production area — supporting overall workplace hygiene and reducing the risk of pathogen transmission within the facility. Multiple models are available to match the incoming worker volume per shift.
✈️ Airports, Railway Stations & Bus Stations
High-volume transport hubs process thousands of passengers and their luggage every hour from diverse origins. Conventional cleaning methods — mopping, surface wiping, disinfectant sprays — address fixed surfaces but cannot continuously disinfect the bags and luggage passing through security every minute. A UVC Tunnel Conveyor integrated alongside existing X-ray security scanners provides a seamless second layer of hygiene — disinfecting all incoming bags without chemicals or liquids, keeping outer layers of luggage intact, and adding no delay to the screening process.
🏘️ Large Buildings, Colonies & High-Rise Societies
High-rise residential buildings receive a constant flow of residents, domestic workers, delivery personnel and courier boxes throughout the day. Residents may sanitise their hands and change clothes when returning home — but laptop bags, handbags and courier parcels are routinely placed directly into closets or living areas without disinfection. A UV Germicidal Tunnel installed in the main lobby provides a fast, dry sanitisation point for all incoming bags, parcels and deliveries — without requiring chemical treatment that might damage expensive bags or electronics.
🏨 Hotels & Resorts
Hotels and resorts already deploy X-ray scanning machines for guest luggage security. The same infrastructure provides an ideal location for an ultraviolet disinfection conveyor — running alongside security screening to deliver simultaneous pathogen control. Incoming guests travel from airports, railway stations and road journeys — their luggage has been in contact with diverse public environments. A UVC Tunnel Conveyor at the check-in entrance provides hygiene assurance for guests, protects hotel staff who handle luggage, and strengthens the property's health and safety credentials with minimal operational change.
🛍️ Malls & Shopping Centres
Malls and shopping centres are among the highest-footfall environments — with thousands of visitors arriving from diverse locations, many carrying reusable bags that are used repeatedly across multiple public venues. Deploying a UVC Tunnel Conveyor at mall entry points provides automated disinfection of all incoming bags and purses without chemicals or wait time — a visible, practical hygiene measure that complements existing security screening and reinforces the centre's commitment to visitor health. An Auto Disinfectant UV Tower is also recommended within individual stores.
🏫 Schools & Educational Institutions
Schools welcome hundreds of children — and their bags, water bottles and tiffin boxes — every morning from diverse home environments and travel routes. A UVC Tunnel Conveyor at the school entrance provides a fast, automated disinfection step for all student belongings during entry and exit — giving parents and school administrators a measurable, visible hygiene barrier. The conveyor operates without chemicals or liquids, poses no risk to children, and adds no perceptible delay to the normal flow of students through the gate.
Developed Jointly with Dhanvanthri Engineers
The Auto Disinfectant UVC Tunnel Conveyor is the result of a joint development between Autocoat Engineering (I) Pvt. Ltd and Dhanvanthri Engineers Pvt. Ltd — two Maharashtra-based manufacturers bringing complementary expertise to a single, purpose-built product.
Autocoat Engineering contributes 35 years of expertise in designing and manufacturing conveyor systems, paint curing ovens, and continuous industrial process equipment. This experience covers precision conveyor drive mechanisms, belt speed control, tunnel enclosure design, and the mechanical reliability required for continuous 8–12 hour daily operation in commercial and industrial environments. Dhanvanthri Engineers Pvt. Ltd contributes specialist knowledge in UV germicidal technology — including UVC lamp selection, lamp placement geometry for 360° exposure within an enclosed tunnel, safety interlocking to prevent UVC exposure outside the chamber, and disinfection efficacy for the target pathogens.
Together, this partnership delivers a UVC Tunnel Conveyor that combines proven conveyor reliability with purpose-designed germicidal performance — a product engineered by specialists in both disciplines rather than adapted from a single manufacturer's existing range.
