Pellet Bulk Handling

KMG pellet bulk handling systems provide a controlled and consistent feed of raw pellet products into the fryer.

Features

  • Bulk handling of raw pellets to provide consistent feed to fryer
  • Flow control conveyors to regulate flow
  • Flow Weigher to provide mass flow measurement
  • Consistent fryer feed important for oil temperature and consistent finished product

KMG Pellet Bulk Handling Systems provide a controlled and consistent feed of raw pellet products into the fryer. Our systems offer a seamless solution for the handling of raw pellets, ensuring a reliable and efficient production process.
To prevent bridging and maintain a steady flow of raw pellets, our systems feature a large hopper with an adjustable gate on the discharge. To regulate the flow of raw pellets, our systems include flow control conveyors. These conveyors regulate the flow of the product into the fryer.
Another component of our system is the patented KMG Flow Weigher. This innovative technology measures the mass flow of pellets, ensuring that the actual feed rate consistently matches the set point. This real-time measurement allows for precise control and adjustment.

FAQs about Pellet Bulk Handling

The Pellet Bulk Handling system is designed to efficiently collect, buffer, and discharge large quantities of pellet snacks, such as crisps or puffed products, into packaging or seasoning lines. It provides a hygienic staging area that streamlines the flow and makes downstream operations more consistent and reliable.

The KMG Pellet Bulk Handling system is engineered to move delicate pellet products with care, minimising breakage and preserving shape during buffering and transfer. With controlled product flow and smooth interior surfaces, the system helps maintain the consistency and quality expected in snack food manufacturing.

Yes. The system can be customised to handle a broad range of throughputs, from pilot-scale operations to high-speed production. Its modular design and scalable capacity mean the bulk hopper can be sized and controlled to suit your line speed and batch requirements without creating bottlenecks.

KMG designs its bulk handling equipment using food-grade stainless steel with smooth, weld-free internal surfaces to support hygiene. These hygienic design principles help facilitate efficient manual cleaning and sanitisation, in line with industry requirements.

Absolutely. The Pellet Bulk Handling system is engineered for seamless integration with upstream processing equipment (such as extruders, seasoning drums) and downstream packaging or bagging machines. With innovative control options and buffer scheduling, product flow is controlled to match line demands while eliminating downtime.
