FTC 18 BELT CONVEYOR
INNOVATIVE AUTOMATIC BELT WASHING SYSTEM (CLEAN-IN- PLACE):
Puree transport always carries the risk of residue accumulation on the belt, which can lead to bacterial growth or quality deterioration. The FTC 18 system definitively solves this problem through an integrated, automatic cleaning system:
- High Pressure Spray Nozzles: At the bottom of the belt (on the return path) is installed a special stainless steel bar with spray nozzles. The nozzles spray water or disinfectant solution continuously or in programmed cycles at high pressure, instantly removing any mash residue from the belt surface.
- Splash Guard: The washing area is completely shielded with a special stainless steel cover. This prevents the dispersion of droplets, water and residues into the surrounding production environment, keeping the space absolutely clean.
- Continuous Operation (Online Cleaning): The system allows the belt to be cleaned while the line is in operation, eliminating downtime for manual cleaning.
DESING & CONSTRUCTION FEATURES:
- Heavy-Duty Stainless Steel Construction (Inox): With a length of 18 meters, the sturdy chassis is supported by multiple, reinforced Inox legs with adjustable feet. The entire construction follows the strictest hygiene standards (HACCP / FDA) for easy washdown.
- Integrated Drainage Tray: Under the entire length of the conveyor (and especially under the washing system) extends a stainless steel basin/drainage tray. All washing water and mash residues are collected there and safely led to the sewer through a special outlet, keeping the factory floor dry and safe.
- Food-Grade Belt: The blue belt is made of a special polymer material approved for direct contact with food, showing excellent resistance to vegetable acids, fats and chemical cleaners.
- Protected Motor (Arrowhead Shroud): The motor unit at the head of the conveyor is covered by a special, waterproof stainless steel box, preventing the ingress of moisture during washing of the installation.
APPLICATION AREAS:
The FTC 18 system is the ideal choice for large processing and standardization units:
Fruit & Vegetable Processing Industries: For the transport of apple, peach, tomato puree (canning, ketchup/sauce production) or potato puree.
Baby Food: Where the requirements for sterilisation and cleanliness of the belt reach 100%.
Confectionery & Bakery Industries: For the long-distance transport of liquid fillings, jams and pralines.
Our Commitment to Hygiene: The FTC 18 conveyor redefines the standards of cleanliness in the food industry. Combining long-distance transport with an automated online washing system, it ensures maximum productivity of your unit, keeping the quality of your product unchanged.
