Key Technology, a member of the Duravant family of operating companies, will introduce its reversible Zephyr conveyor at PACK EXPO booth S-3547. Achieving higher capacities than other horizontal-motion conveyors, Zephyr gently moves product with minimal bounce to protect product quality and reduce noise. Now equipped to flow in either direction, the reversible Zephyr maximizes production line versatility while improving sanitation and minimizing maintenance.
“We’ve made design changes to our field-proven Zephyr to expand its capabilities and meet the needs of even more food processors. Previously, if customers needed to redirect a product stream, they had two options—diverter gates and reversible belt conveyors—both of which have more moving parts that require additional cleaning and service,” said Rudy Sanchez, process systems product development manager at Key. “The new modified Zephyr offers the same simple design, great sanitation, and low maintenance as our standard model but now with a reversible function.”
