Key Technology introduces the expanded Iso-Flo family of stainless steel vibratory conveyors, designed to improve dependability and enhance sanitation. Key manufactures the new vibratory conveyors to satisfy the most stringent sanitation demands in the industry, meeting 3A Dairy Sanitary Standards, USDA, HACCP, and FDA requirements, and exceeding NEMA 4X washdown specifications. The new Iso-Flo shakers feature scalloped flat bars, sealed isolation springs and a smooth 2B surface finish that discourage bacteria growth. Unlike traditional vibratory conveyors, the new Iso-Flo conveyors feature a patented removable gate that enables the sanitation crew to easily and thoroughly clean the area. Stress contoured arms, previously available as an option on Key‚s vibratory conveyors for select applications, are standard on all new Iso-Flo conveyors. These durable arms, made with proprietary next-generation fiber material, offer an operational life that is up to twice the life of traditional vibratory conveyor arms. More durable arms reduce maintenance costs and downtime for Iso-Flo customers. Iso-Flo uses independent, frame-mounted drive and spring arm assemblies that distribute energy equally to all parts of the conveyor bed in a controlled natural-frequency operation. This operating principle minimizes vibration being transferred to the structural support, reducing the cost of installation and enabling the conveyor to be installed exactly where it is most beneficial – suspended from overhead, supported from the floor, or mounted to other machinery. This design also reduces energy consumption and offers quiet operation. Key offers Iso-Flo conveyors for product distribution as well as for product alignment, fines removal, scalping, dewatering, inspection and other applications as needed. Iso-Flo S conveyors, designed to limit vertical acceleration to less than 1 g, prevents product loft and bounce to eliminate damage to fragile product and minimize the loss of condiments and seasonings.
