Conveyor cleaning station

for fruitautomatic

In case of just slight contamination the usage of a cleaning conveyor might be sufficient. However, if heavily soiled, a cleaning unit should be used which separates the debris from the berries with the support of a strong air blower. The air fan is mounted underneath the mesh belt, and leaves, stems and other impurities are blown through an air duct into a dirt collection drawer. Infeed of berries either manually or by using an infeed conveyor. The cleaning unit with fan can optionally be equipped with a tiltable conveyor which takes over all the berries after the cleaning process. Through the belt inclination the good quality berries roll down to a downstream conveyor belt, while poor quality berries remain adhering on the tilt belt and fall off at the end of it into collecting boxes. Belt speed and tilt angle adjustable.
