Bulk conveying just got easier

New conveyor for fragile food products

Related tags Fruit

Bulk materials handling specialist Flexicon has designed a new line of tubular cable conveyors, Flex-Disc, for the gentle transfer of fragile food products.

The conveyor moves material using high-strength polymer discs, affixed to a stainless steel or galvanised cable. The discs are said to slide within smooth stainless steel tubing, moving fragile food products in a way that is gentle, quiet and dust-free.

Flexicon says the conveyor can move through small holes in walls or ceilings and can work horizontally, vertically or at any angle. The system can have single or multiple inlets and outlets, and convey over short distances or hundreds of metres.

Gentle handling makes the conveyors suitable for foods that are prone to breakage or degradation, such as cereals, coffees, teas, dried fruits, frozen vegetables, grains, nuts, peas, pet foods, seeds, snacks and spices.
