Product Handling Overview The document outlines the main characteristics and advantages of Brovind's product handling solutions, emphasizing their tailored fit for specific products, processes, and available space. Key benefits include gentle handling, minimal product breakage, compactness, reliability, high efficiency, low running costs, safety, and user-friendliness. These solutions are designed to integrate seamlessly into existing processes.
Technical Features The equipment is constructed from AISI 304 stainless steel or painted carbon steel, ensuring durability and suitability for handling delicate products like shelled kernels. The solutions are adaptable for various products, including in-shell or shelled dried nuts, seeds, cocoa beans, cereals, granular materials, and packed products.
Technology Features - Storing/Buffering: Features devices to minimize product breakage, easy cleaning, and optional level/weight control.
- Screw Conveyors: Offer low investment and running costs, suitable for volumetric dosing and heavy-duty applications.
- Belt Conveyors: Cost-effective, versatile, flexible, and suitable for long distances and high quantities.
- Vertical Bucket Elevators: Ideal for bulk in-shell products, covering significant height differences with a low footprint.
- Pivoting Bucket Elevators: Modular, easy to clean, available in multiple configurations, and perfect for delicate products.
- Vibrating Channels/Cross Feeders: Require negligible maintenance, provide accurate dosing, and are unaffected by continuous start/stop operations.
- Pneumatic Transports: Suitable for kernels to be chopped or powdered products, non-linear paths, and minimal space requirements.
Importance of Product Handling Brovind emphasizes the critical role of product handling in transforming a group of machines into a cohesive process line. Proper handling ensures smooth process flow, minimizes kernel breakage, optimizes space usage, and maintains reasonable energy consumption. Brovind dedicates significant resources to designing and constructing optimal handling solutions, considering them integral to the process core rather than ancillary components. Their product handling equipment is among the most comprehensive and technologically advanced available.
