Nut Cleaning Systems
Manufacturers are held more and more accountable for any possible damage a ‘bad’ product may cause to any of their customers. As such we are continually looking to improve our HACCP systems as food safety is of paramount importance.
In an effort to keep up with the very best technological developments we recently ventured across to Belgium and linked up with one of the world’s leading sorting companies, BEST NV (Belgian Electronic Sorting Technology). Their LS9000 sorter has proved to be far superior to other sorting methods with every nut kernel scanned separately by lasers during its free-fall. A few milliseconds later any defects will be removed by powerful air guns.
At the end of the cleaning plant we have installed an on-line inspection unit manufactured by Smiths Detection and designed specifically for high-speed monitoring of raw nut kernels using the latest in x-ray technology. This is yet another means of detecting and rejecting any harmful physical contaminants that may be present in the bulk packs of nuts before cleaning.
Given the investment in latest scanning technology we would welcome an opportunity to quote for any contract cleaning of raw materials – we’re confident you’ll be impressed with the quality of the finished product.
