Key Technology Auto Diverter for Iso-Flo vibratory conveyors

Key Technology, a member of the Duravant family of operating companies, has improved its Auto Diverter for its Iso-Flo vibratory conveyors.

Designed for bulk product and packaging distribution lines, the diverter can split the product flow into two downstream systems and change the proportion of product going into each of the two lanes as needed.

Features include a stronger thicker diverter blade that can be easily removed for cleaning and maintenance, and an improved pneumatic hold-down system which anchors the blade to the surface of the bed to withstand a greater amount of product force without shifting from its programmed position.

Suitable for dry, frozen and wet applications, the diverter can handle virtually any free-flowing food product including fruits and vegetables such as cut and whole potatoes and cut and whole corn, as well as nuts, sweets, snacks and more.

With fully integrated and optimised controls, it can be operated locally at the user interface. Additionally, it can be programmed to be controlled via a plant-wide network and/or automatically controlled by downstream equipment.

Other features include scalloped welds throughout its stainless-steel frame and blade to maximise sanitation, and the actuator is positioned underneath the conveyor bed to help maintain food safety.

Available for beds up to 1830 mm wide, the diverter can be equipped with a blade up to 1200 mm long.
