Key Technology has introduced new, high-capacity vibratory conveyors for advanced food handling applications. Conveying up to 100,000 pounds (lbs.)/45,359 kilograms (kg.) of product an hour and available in widths more than 10 feet (ft.)/3 meters (m.), these extra-large, high-capacity conveyors can be engineered for grading, aligning, distributing, and other specialized food handling functions. Achieving new levels of versatility at high throughputs, Key’s Iso-Flo®, Impulse®, Zephyr®, and Marathon® vibratory conveyors offer industry-leading reliability, superior sanitation, and minimal maintenance requirements.

The high-capacity vibratory conveyors are ideal for fruits, vegetables, potato strips, potato chips, nuts, meat, poultry, seafood, dairy products, confections, snacks, bakery products, cereals, grains, and other products. Key customizes the tune and stroke of each vibratory system to match the needs of the application so that conveying performance is optimized.

Key’s specialized conveyor designs help facilitate more sophisticated functions even at high capacities, including grading, removing fines, dewatering, distributing, and spreading product for sorters and other downstream equipment. The conveyor spring arms can be positioned either on the sides of the bed or underneath it. Drives can be positioned outside, inside, or even close to the center of the frame. The design and rigidity of the frame is also customized depending on the application. Each conveyor can be installed in a variety of different ways—suspended from overhead, supported from the floor, or mounted to other machinery.

Iso-Flo, Impulse, Zephyr, and Marathon conveyors are backed by Key’s warranty, which ensures equipment reliability and reduces the processor’s total cost of ownership. Key supports its customers worldwide through an extensive sales network and a global service team.
