Proseal Introduces Next-Generation Hygienic Conveyor

Proseal has developed a new ultra-hygienic conveyor to help food manufacturers meet the highest food quality and safety standards.

To this end, the next generation OC Conveyor incorporates a number of unique features that avoid potential food traps, together with an enhanced design which ensures fast and thorough cleaning during wash down.

The new fully folded construction of the conveyor has removed any box sections or tubing. These are areas where food can sometimes fall or become trapped. In particular, sealed tubes have the potential for bacteria to develop if the integrity of the tube is breached in any way, for example through a small hole or crack in the weld, since the inside of the tube cannot be cleaned.

A further significant feature is the replacement of moving belts with a new wash-through chain transport system. This again avoids any food traps and speeds up cleaning as well as eliminating belt maintenance costs.

This latest version of Proseal’s proven OC Conveyor retains all its existing benefits including a modular design that allows customers to specify length, width and tray pitch for precise integration into the production line.
