Create a Winning Situation with the Right Sanitary Conveyor

Modern design features can drastically reduce operational costs

In the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries, proper equipment cleaning and sanitation are paramount because the stakes are high. Few players want to gamble with consumer health, government regulations, or profit losses caused by delayed production line start-ups, product recalls, or plant shutdowns. But how much money do you lay out on the table for sanitation costs?

There are many suitable washdown and sanitary conveyor options that transport products in a safe, clean manner. But selecting the correct type of conveyor for your application is critical, especially in a large facility where hundreds or thousands of feet of conveyor are required. The wrong choice could cost a fortune in operating expenses.

Our new white paper, “Create a Winning Situation with the Right Sanitary Conveyor,” profiles the design features of sanitary conveyor and helps you determine which conveyor options quickly pay for themselves through reduced operating costs. Learn how conveyor features can affect the following:

• Benefit the environment and the company's bottom line
• Reduce labor and improve food safety
• Safeguard against workplace hazards

Cleated Belt Design

Infeed Hopper

The cleated belt design helps keep the products from falling to the bottom of the conveyor while additional products are being dispensed into the hopper. Inside the all-welded seamless hopper container, a dividing plate has been placed in an optimal position between the cleats for additional product support.

This NeXtgen hybrid features the latest in sanitary design from our engineers. The three pin bracket seat design for the underneath drip pans allows for quick and easy disassembly for cleaning.

Roller Uptake

Roller Uptake

A cam-levered roller take-up on both sides of the conveyor has been added to make cleaning or changing the belt a breeze. When the lever is in the raised position, the belt can be removed. When the lever is lowered, the cam-lever tension keeps constant pressure on the end of the conveyor, keeping the belt from slipping.



A front cover plate finishes off the sanitary design to ensure products stay contaminate free and also offers the benefit of easy fastener-free removal for clean up duty.
