Hellers has upgraded its sausage line with a system manufactured by Mercer Stainless, making the transfer of meat trim and bagged smallgoods to the packing stations more efficient and hygienic.

The units are manufactured entirely of stainless steel, including the bearings, to ensure maximum hygiene and cleaning ability.

The system for Hellers incorporated a range of plastic modular belt conveyors which were fitted with Intralox belts, including a custom-designed metal detector conveyor constructed from FDA-approved plastics. This experience in conveyor design and system integration allows the Mercer Stainless team to develop a cost-efficient solution to any material handling problems.
