Hygienic vacuum conveyor for pharmaceutical and food industries
Optimize your material handling process with a vacuum conveyor that ensures dust-tight transfer and reduces manual handling, ideal for environments where product integrity and hygiene are paramount.
Automates and Transfers Powders Efficiently
The Uni-Vac V-Series V05 from Hanningfield represents an ultra-hygienic vacuum conveyor solution, specifically engineered for effective powder transfer. Its seam-welded, rolled hopper design eliminates all welds for easy cleaning, making it ideal for stringent applications in the pharmaceutical, food and beverage, nutraceutical, chemical, and cannabis industries. This unit accommodates up to 300 kgs/hr, integrating seamlessly into your processing lines by providing automated, dust-tight transfer across various stages. Unlike compressed-air reliant systems, the Uni-Vac V05 operates with an electric pump, reducing energy consumption and streamlining maintenance. Constructed using 316L and 304 stainless steel for superior durability and corrosion resistance, this conveyor supports versatile applications, including pharmaceutical tablets and vitamin supplement production. Its design aligns with GMP standards, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and facilitating easy dismantling for cleaning, thus enhancing operational efficiency while safeguarding product integrity.
