Common Types of Food Conveyors
Belt Conveyors: The most common type, using continuous food-grade belts (often PU or PVC) to move products on a smooth surface.
Modular Belt Conveyors: Feature interlocking plastic modules that are easy to clean, replace, and allow for drainage of liquids or air.
Screw (Auger) Conveyors: Use a rotating helical screw to move bulk materials like flour, sugar, or grains through a tube or trough.
Vibratory Conveyors: Use small vertical and forward vibrations to move delicate or particulate foods, often used for sorting or feeding.
Incline and Vertical Conveyors: Specifically designed to lift products to higher levels, often featuring cleats or flights to prevent slipping.
Pneumatic Conveyors: Move powders or small particles through pipes using high-velocity air.
Key Features
Sanitary Design: Modern systems emphasise toolless disassembly and "clean-in-place" (CIP) capabilities to reduce bacterial harborage points.
Food-Grade Materials: Construction typically involves 304 or 316 stainless steel.
Adjustable Speeds: Most systems include variable speed controllers (PLCs) to synchronise movement with other machinery on the production line.
Automation Integration: Advanced "intelligent" systems use sensors to manage accumulation, singulation (separating items into single rows), and sorting.
Hygiene: Designed for easy, tool-free disassembly and sanitation to meet strict food safety standards.
Efficiency: Automate product transfer, reduce manual handling, and minimize downtime, improving Overall Equipment Effectiveness.
Flexibility: Can be linear, curved (90-degree bends), inclined (elevators), or integrated into complete systems.
Variable Speed: Adjustable speeds for precise control over processing stages.
Integration: Connect with labeling, packaging, sorting, and grading systems.
Materials: Typically stainless steel for durability and cleanability, with food-grade belts.
Applications
Bakery & Confectionery: Moving dough, baked goods, chocolates.
Meat & Poultry: Handling raw cuts and packaged products.
Dairy: Transporting yogurts, cheeses, milk products.
Fruits & Vegetables: Sorting, washing, and packaging fresh produce.
Ready Meals: Assembling and packaging meals.
