Food Machinery - PU Hoppers and Chutes

Volta food grade materials possess mechanical characteristics which make them ideally suited to static elements such as funnels or chutes. These elements are common in free fall of food products and chemicals and, when fabricated from conventional, inflexible materials such as polycarbonate or steel, can be hazard points or elements of concern in production for a number of reasons;• Hard elements causing damage to product in free fall• Elements from inflexible materials can jam when (irregular and bulky) product flow is at maximum• Polycarbonate elements are often cracked when removed for cleaning and refastened with bolts by maintenance staff• With solids, noise levels can be high• Bolts and fasteners can be difficult to open• Steel elements do not offer visibility into the product flow• Low cleanability.
