Protecting Fragile Food Product During Bulk Food Processing Operations

This automated bulk material handling system provides a total process solution for moving highly fragile food product through multiple process operations into bulk storage for temporary holding prior to final packaging. At a process rate of 12,000 pounds per hour, bulk totes of food product are nested into a lift carriage; the tote is sealed [...]

Sanitary Bulk Material Handling Equipment Accessibility: Bringing Speed, Safety, and Confidence to Cleaning

Processing and packaging operations are becoming acutely aware of the significant cleanability and product safety advantages that result from the use of sanitary, application-specific material handling equipment versus force-fit, general industrial units. With the increased awareness and importance given to cleanability, plant operations, supervisory staff, and management are, now, looking for methods to improve equipment [...]

Sanitary Bulk Material Handling Equipment Cleanability: Value, Risk & Outcome

Can a typical, industrial bulk material handling system in a sanitary processing operation be thoroughly cleaned, even to the microbial level? Probably. But, with every cleaning event of a process-inappropriate bulk material handling system comes increased costs for labor, consumables (such as detergents and water), and energy. And, more importantly,  with hard-to-clean equipment in sanitary [...]

Sanitary Bulk Material Handling Equipment: Materials of Construction In Process-specific Applications

In an earlier post, some of the risks of integrating process-inappropriate equipment into sanitary bulk material handling applications were presented. In that post it was noted that many sanitary processing operations settle for force-fit, general industrial equipment rather than process-specific, sanitary bulk material handling equipment. “Clearly, there are degrees, or relative levels to sanitary compliance,” [...]
