Conveyor for food products

The Easy Clean slip-torque conveyor has minimal horizontal frame surfaces where contaminants can collect. Both USDA (United States Dept. of Agriculture) and BISSC (Bakery Industry Sanitation Standards Committee) standards are incorporated into the conveyor's design and construction. The stainless steel conveyor frame has continuous welds and innovative 45-degree steel strength bends. Elimination of 90-degree steel bends allows contaminants to fall through the conveyor, while solid-faced roller surfaces and loose roller spacing reduce the possibility of particle collections. The unit is also designed for easy, thorough cleaning.
