Storveyor

The storveyor is placed between two production processes to accept and discharge product simultaneously at different rates. This can mitigate stoppages or surges in either process. Larger storveyors require a belted design up to 100m³. For smaller functions such as smoothing from batch inputs to continuous outputs the smaller vibratory mini-stor is up to 2m³ capacity. The usual operation of the storveyor is a “first in first out” principle and other functions can be programmed. Filling and discharge are at all automated by level sensors or more specialised controls that can offer unique features such as low or no-drop filling routines for very delicate products. The construction is safe, hygienic and designed handle the product gently. The stainless steel hopper is specially shaped to minimise product compaction and can be constructed with integral hoods and covers to contain dust, heat etc or prevent contamination from outside. At the base of the hopper a positively driven full width food quality conveyor gently moves product forward to the discharge point after which one or more KMG vibratory conveyors regulate the output to exactly meet the demand of following process or packaging plant.
