Hi Fi Asia China 2020
Habasit offers a conveyor belt-friendly TPU scraper bar for fabric and
monolithic belts. Efficient in the removal of product residue, TPU scraper
bars ensure better hygiene, are safer for belt surfaces, and easier to clean.
The food processing industry has put up for years with a major disadvantage
of rigid metal and hard plastic scraper bars: the risk of damaging
the belt surface. When cracked and scratched, the belt becomes
harder to clean, and cracks can become a home for bacteria to grow.
While classic belt scrapers are usually completely inflexible, the
Habasit TPU scraper has the advantage of a flexible tip, which translates
to three key advantages: no risk of damaging the belt surface,
more efficient and even belt cleaning. Easier cleaning – as liquids
like oil, water and detergents are better dealt with by a flexible TPU
scraper bar which maintains continuous contact with the belt surface.
The new Whitebloc Aero by GEA uses proven technology that has been
optimized to meet the specific needs of producers of ESL beverages, that
often focus on small batch production, to give them the edge in a competitive
marketplace. These include simplicity, efficiency, reliability, practicality,
sustainability, flexibility and the lowest possible TCO.
The GEA Whitebloc Aero’s design is optimized for the treatment time
required in ESL applications; this allows bottle decontamination with
dry H2O2 and subsequent activation with warm air to be performed on
a single carousel which keeps the layout as compact as possible. The decontamination,
filling and capping processes are performed in a simple
hygienic cabin with a top-down
laminar flow of sterile air with a
slight overpressure to maintain
a clean and protected environment.
