Replacing Wire Belt with Plastic Modular Belt
Yield increase at leading North American poultry processor
- Challenge
Marinade dropping through the wire belt, resulting in waste. With the wire belt running under the product while being ploughed, it would literally scrape the marinade off.
- Project goal
Reduction of marinade waste, improvement of transfer performance.
- Solution
Installation of M0870 Micropitch
- Result
- Easy handling of the required transfer; minimum open areas in belt
- Marinade wastage is now a fraction of before
- No apparent wear or fatigue issues with the belt
