Cooling Vibratory Conveyors

Cooling vibratory conveyors are designed to cool product as it passes over the screen. The vibratory conveyor pictured has spigots incorporated in order to provide a flow of cooled air over the product. Other designs incorporate fans or vents. The number of spigots would depend on the size of the trough, volume of product and the degree of cooling required.

Features

  • Electromagnetically driven
  • Hygienic and easy to clean
  • Low running and maintenance cost
  • Seamless integration
  • Bespoke design to suit your application
  • 304 stainless as standard

How Vibratory Conveyor Design Impacts Snack Food Quality

How do Cooling Vibratory Conveyors work?

Cooling vibratory conveyors work by arranging for a flow of cooled air to pass through the conveyed product. The product will typically be conveyed along a specially designed trough which incorporates a suitable screen and has provision for a cool air supply..

The design of screens is an art form of its own. It is essential that the screen allows conveyed product to pass over its surface without getting caught in the screen or being abraded by the screen. Careful selection of screening material and assessment of the conveyed product characteristics is vital. Some questions to resolve include – is the product Sticky? Brittle? Friable? Dusty? Oily? Dense? Light? The answers to these questions will inform our recommended screening material and type.

Careful thought needs to be given to the air supply – there needs to be a steady, laminar, supply of cool clean air, directed across the entire width of the conveyor. Our expert designers have a number of airflow models which we use to optimise the cool air feed.

FAQs about Cooling Vibratory Conveyors

Cooling vibratory conveyors are designed to reduce the temperature of hot or warm products as they progress through the production line. This is especially important after frying, baking, or oil application, where the product must cool to a suitable temperature before seasoning, packaging, or further processing. By combining gentle vibration with strategically directed airflow, these conveyors enable efficient and even cooling without damaging delicate products.

Air is directed over the product bed through a series of fans, vents, or cooled spigots positioned above or below the vibratory trough. As the product is gently moved along the conveyor by the vibratory action, this airflow rapidly draws away surface and internal heat, promoting fast, uniform cooling. This controlled cooling helps preserve product integrity and improves efficiency by reducing the risk of clumping or condensation in later processing stages.

These systems are ideal for products that are fragile, lightweight, or susceptible to damage from traditional mechanical handling. This includes items such as extruded snacks, crisps, coated nuts, cereals, and puffed or baked products. Because the vibratory action gently lifts and separates items during transport, the risk of breakage or abrasion is significantly reduced.

All KMG cooling vibratory conveyors are constructed from food-grade stainless steel and are designed with hygiene as a top priority. Troughs feature smooth, fully welded surfaces that prevent debris accumulation and are easy to clean. Removable covers, tool-free access panels, and optional clean-in-place systems make routine sanitation quick and efficient, helping to minimise downtime and maintain food safety compliance.

Yes. KMG’s cooling vibratory conveyors are engineered to order, allowing for customisation in terms of size, airflow configuration, product throughput, and integration with upstream and downstream systems. Whether your facility requires single-lane cooling or complex multi-line integration, the conveyors can be designed to maximise space usage and production efficiency while delivering optimal cooling performance.
