Conveyor MVF 150
The MVF 150 modular conveyor is the evolution of 15 years of experience in conveying powdered and granular products mainly in the food, pharmaceutical, plastics and industrial sectors.
In addition to ensuring hygienic closed-loop conveying, the modular construction allows disassembly for quick and thorough cleaning of parts in contact with the product, making it ideal for applications where frequent sanitization steps are necessary, (e.g., to avoid product deposits that can create mold), or where two different products are to be handled with the same machine (e.g., to avoid contamination during product changeover).
Other salient features of the MVF are conveying with minimal if any alteration of the product making it ideal for fragile products over distances up to 25 meters and flow rates of 1000 kg/h (e.g., dried fruits with and without shells, cereal flakes, rice, muesli, coffee beans, etc.), difficult to flow (e.g., fresh grated cheese); modularity allows increasing the loading volume, flow rate or conveying distance without changing the existing conveyor but adding modules or changing the pump.
Depending on the characteristics of the plant, the MVF can convey products with particle size greater than 1 µm, specific gravity from 0.1 kg/l, with flow rates up to 2 t/h and distances up to 30 meters.
Compared with conveyor belts, porters and bucket elevators, the advantages that the MVF provides are:
-
modularity for easy disassembly during cleaning (which can be done by a single operator without mechanical tools)
-
reduced plant downtime for cleaning and sanitization
-
reduced overall dimensions, as the transport is developed vertically
-
ease and adaptability of installation even on existing plants
-
increased conveying distance and flow rate without having to change or modify parts of the machine except the pump
-
contained costs
-
no organoleptic alteration of the product during transport
-
no pollution of the product during transport
-
no product loss during transport with effective daily savings compared to conveyor belts or similar systems
