Enmin says its new generation drives are designed to energise production lines by offering a unique handling method for controlling the flow of food products, ingredients and bulk material.
Products can be screened, sized, or accurately metered to ensure a smooth, uniform and fully variable flow.
With minimal moving parts, next to no on-going maintenance and low energy consumption, it’s a reliable, low-cost method of product handling, the company says.
The cyclic operation is controlled from a range of electronic controllers that will vary the feeding rate in a manner to suit the specific application enabling high-speed filling coupled with pinpoint accuracy. The controllers are available in different enclosures or as standalone for incorporation into central panels.
The drives are available with either an epoxy or a recently introduced Teflon coating. The Teflon coating provides greater cathodic protection thereby eliminating surface rust, making it the ideal surface finish for a food environment.
The Teflon is fully FDA approved; its 40-micron surface
coating means that it does not suffer from the chipping that can occur on painted models. This makes it ideal for use on mobile equipment that is susceptible to knocks and bangs as it is moved around the workplace.
