Stainless steel conveyors for personal care, food and pharmaceutical, expanede the range widths with the new 70 mm and product handling functions by FlexLink.
New size option, designed to better handling smaller products like containers and packets
FlexLink introduces further capabilities for smoother product handling.
In addition to the 85 mm, 180 mm, and 300 mm stainless steel sizes available, FlexLink now offers a new 70 mm option.
This new size will replace the present XLX option.
Designed to handle smaller containers and packets that are more sensitive to being unstable during production, this additional offer gives manufacturers greater possibilities to optimize their production control during manufacturing.
A toolbox for cleaning and clamping solutions for safe production with the stainless steel conveyors
Following 40 years’ experience in automation, FlexLink’s comprehensive toolbox of solutions efficiently handles more product sizes and types than before. Standard handling functions available include cleaning solutions, clamp stops, and transfer bridges.
The chain design is available for stainless steel or aluminium product range
The importance of operator safety continues to be a driving force for product development at FlexLink.
In line with the additional 70 mm conveyor option, FlexLink has also introduced a new chain design, available for the stainless steel, as well as the aluminum product range.
The innovative chain design has a high focus on product and operator safety, decreasing the opportunity for operator injury during production. The new design is approved by and compliant with both the latest European and American regulations.
Thanks to a reduction of pinch points, manufacturers are less likely to experience production losses caused by unstable products. The possibility for products such as juice cartons and baby food pouches to be damaged is also lessened, as a result of fewer pinch points.
Simple line design to reduce the time to clean it and minimize the risk of cross-contemination
When considering line design, the simplicity of a lean interior reduces the time needed to clean the line and minimizes the risk of cross-contamination.
Without crevices for contaminants such as crumbs to fall into, and with easy operator access for cleaning, the line starts with high levels of cleanliness that are easier to maintain.
Transporting products from primary packaging through to the end of the line, FlexLink provides a clean, simple line layout, following HACCP guidelines. With the combination of a more comprehensive portfolio of stainless steel conveyors and improved safety features, FlexLink continues to give value and control to manufacturers.
