Gentle-flo storage and handling system for fresh produce
In the fresh produce industry, ensuring minimal product damage and maintaining sanitary conditions during storage and handling can be challenging. This is particularly crucial during short-term storage of items like potatoes and raw vegetables.
Streamline storage with gentle handling and flexibility
The Gentle-Flo Storage and Handling System by Heat and Control is designed to provide a modular and programmable short-term storage solution for fresh produce. Utilizing a shuttling Bin Filling Auger (BFA), the system ensures that products gently descend into storage bins via a lowerator, minimizing damage and the risk of infection. Its open, expandable design prioritizes sanitation, allowing for less time spent on maintenance. The modular configuration means the system can adapt to changing business needs by easily adding extra storage bins. Additionally, the variable speed discharge facilitates synchronization with downstream processes. Ideal for applications involving potatoes, tuber/root vegetables, and raw produce, this system ensures that operations run smoothly and efficiently.
