Distribution conveyor systems for food processing
Streamline your food processing pipeline with precision-engineered distribution conveyors, ensuring efficient flow management and precise metering to optimize downstream processing and enhance product quality.
Facilitates Product Distribution and Flow Control
The Zephyr Horizontal Motion Conveyor from Key Technology is designed for efficient product distribution and flow control in food processing lines. This conveyor system employs gentle horizontal motion to move products without damaging delicate items, making it ideal for applications such as confectionery, dairy, and protein manufacturing. Capable of handling a wide range of products, including chocolate bars and tortilla chips, it ensures smooth integration into various production stages. Equipped with a PLC-controlled interface, the system allows precise metering and distribution, optimizing line throughput and reducing product loss. The Zephyr offers energy efficiency with its optimized motor controls, cutting energy consumption significantly in continuous high-speed operations. Constructed from durable materials, it maintains corrosion resistance and complies with hygiene standards suitable for food environments. Its design supports easy integration with existing systems, providing comprehensive engineering support for customized solutions.
