Vibratory Conveying Systems
KMG manufacture a range of conveying systems for conveying both food and non-food materials.
Typically, we use vibratory conveyors, flat belt conveyors, flighted belt elevators, modular belts, roller tracks or air conveyors.
The method chosen will depend on the fragility of the product, hygiene requirements and the processing environment. Changes in elevation and direction will also influence the conveying method selected.
Product can also be distributed to multiple places, sieved, merged or mixed.
Base Products Suitable for KMG Vibratory Conveying Systems
Most food materials that can be conveyed on KMG equipment fall into the following categories:
- Raw materials, for example potatoes, grains and nuts
- Ingredients, for example pasta, beans and spices
- Uncooked product, for example salad leaves, pellets and dried fruit
- Cooked product, for example IQF vegetables, nuts and cereals
- Seasoned product, for example potato chips and tortilla chips
- Packaged products, for example packets of snacks and cardboard cartons
Many KMG conveying systems will employ one or more of the methods above. Critical to the safety and efficiency of the system are the transitions between similar or different machines. Good transitions contain and handle the product gently.
At KMG, we are experienced in designing the right conveying systems for your product and factory. Our expert sales team has the experience to select the appropriate machine type from our extensive range of conveying systems.
Food Contact Surfaces and Material Selection
With our experience, we know that selecting an appropriate food contact surface is essential for sanitation and hygiene.
As standard, we offer a 304 stainless steel surface finish. This is a cost-effective and hygienic material suitable for a wide range of food products.
If your product is particularly acidic, for example fresh fruit or raw meat, or if you use particularly stringent cleaning products due to your hygiene standards, then we would recommend 316 stainless steel.
Where necessary, we will use FDA and EU-compliant polymers. Our material selection is designed to optimise the key goals of safety, reliability and value.
Manufacturing, Welding and Pre-Build Inspection
We manufacture all our equipment in our state-of-the-art factory. We have made a significant investment in welding technology and now have two state-of-the-art laser welding machines.
These are capable of a 0.2mm weld, which, despite being so fine, has excellent penetration with no distortion due to the concentrated heat. This has been a game changer for our design capability, making our equipment even more hygienic and easy to clean.
Part of our service includes a complete pre-build in our assembly hall, giving you the opportunity to carry out a pre-finishing inspection before delivery. This gives you the chance to introduce small changes to access or screening before the system is finished.
Control and Automation
KMG combine these features with in-house, industry-leading control and automation to create world-class conveying systems.
We design and prebuild in our UK facility
Manufacture, Assembly & Testing
Our custom-built, 10,000m2 modern production facility enables us to build your distribution and seasoning systems to the highest standards.
Every KMG system is designed, manufactured, assembled and tested by us before dispatch and delivery to customers. We have a team of highly skilled fabricators, welders and fitters who take pride in the quality of their work.
We have a commitment of care to our workforce that ensures optimal health and safety practices and we embrace modern, efficient, and safe manufacturing methods.
Project engineers work closely with the production staff to ensure that your machines are built to the highest standards, within your agreed time-frame.
Depending on your requirements, pre-delivery inspections (PDI), software acceptance tests (SAT) and factory acceptance tests (FAT) can all be incorporated into the project timeline.
