Small piece remover for food processors

When handling diverse food products, ensuring consistent product sizing is vital. This Small Piece Remover optimizes your production line by efficiently separating smaller fragments, enhancing quality and throughput.

Separates Smaller Pieces in Food Processing Lines

The Small Piece Remover by Key Technology is designed to optimize food processing lines by efficiently separating smaller product fragments. This open-bed design machine features an integral frame and an endless sizing belt that operates at a right angle to the product flow. The rolling cross-flow movement forms a trough, gently mixing and urging product transfer through the machine, effectively separating smaller pieces from the primary stream. Ideal for applications in confectionery, dairy, dried fruits, leafy greens, nuts, and more, it enhances product quality and reduces waste across various food industries. The Small Piece Remover can handle continuous high-speed operations, offering seamless integration into existing production systems. It supports automated processes with options for customization, ensuring alignment with specific production requirements. Constructed with durable materials, it assures reliability and minimal maintenance, making it a valuable asset for food processors focused on efficiency and high throughput.

Benefits

  • Enhances product quality by efficiently separating unwanted smaller pieces from the main flow.
  • Increases production line efficiency with continuous, high-speed operation.
  • Reduces waste and material handling costs through precise separation processes.
  • Minimizes manual intervention, leading to lower labor costs with automated functionality.
  • Customizable integration allows seamless retrofitting into existing food processing systems.
