Description

The Ultra Direct is a simple, economical conveyor for heavy and hard-to-move products such as fruit, vegetables and poultry. It has no base structure and no leaf springs, and its straightforward design almost eliminates wear parts, reducing maintenance time and cost.

Drive design

Two quiet, synchronised eccentric drives are mounted directly on the conveyor pan. The drive system needs no gears, pulleys or belts and is sealed against dust and liquid. Because the stroke stays constant when product speed changes (speed is set by the VFD motor), the Ultra Direct is well suited to high-head-load applications. It is built with USDA-approved materials and can be made entirely of stainless steel for washdown environments.

Customisation

Options include peripheral discharge for scale feeding, dewatering screens to remove excess moisture, grading screens to remove fines and overs, and high-head-load designs for hopper applications. The unit can be floor-mounted or ceiling-hung for quick installation. A dual-deck panel design with removable panels offers a simple grading solution that can be tailored to the application.
