Fruit and Vegetable Elevator and Conveyor Introduction

Fruit and vegetable elevators and conveyors are mainly used for the elevating, sorting, and transporting of fresh fruits and vegetables in various stages of processing, packaging, or distribution. They play a crucial role in the efficient and gentle handling of the fruits when for processing. This article is mainly introducing the popular machines for fruits and vegetables conveying and elevating.

• The stainless steel scrape elevator can also be called a scrape conveyor, composed of a stainless steel frame, scrape bucket, drive system, guide rails, and control system.
• The stainless steel scrape elevator is used for all kinds of fruit elevating such as cherry fruits, tomatoes, carrots, papaya fruits, etc.
• All are stainless steel SUS304 construction conforming to food hygiene standards.
• It is able to connect with bubble washing machines and fruit sorting machines to form a fruit processing line.
• It is able to elevate water-containing materials to a certain height along the 40-degree slant against the bottom and work in a humid environment.
• The scrape can be made of stainless steel, PVC or rubber material. According to different fruit conveying requirements, different materials can be chosen.
• The rack is made of SUS304 material and constructed with an integral welding structure with high rigidity and fine appearance.
• The lubricity of the partition board reduces the equipment wear and lengthens the service life.

• The mesh chain scrape elevator is mainly used for conveying or elevating small fruits such as apples, pears, carrots, dates, citrus, and berry fruits.
• The equipment is made of food-grade engineering plastic mesh belt, food-grade rubber belt or stainless steel conveyor belt, mechanical stepless speed-regulating transmission machine and stainless steel fruit hopper. Its characteristics are as follows:
• The engineering plastic mesh belt module structure is not easy to damage the conveying materials, and it is easy to clean, and there is no hygienic dead corner.
• The lifting speed is mechanically stepless, and it is easy to connect with washing machines and other equipment.
• Beautiful appearance, compact structure, simple operation, and easy maintenance.

• The roller-type conveyor is mainly used for conveying, sorting, and grading round fruits with diameters more than 10mm such as citrus, apples, tomatoes, passion fruits, guava, avocadoes, etc.
• It consists of a series of rollers mounted on a frame to create a continuous conveying surface, the machine is mainly composed of food-grade SUS304 frames, rollers, roller supports, side rails, a motor driving system, and a control system.
• The spacing between the rollers and the roller size can be customized based on the size and shape of the fruits being transported.
• Fruit roller conveyors can be integrated with sorting and grading equipment such as optical sensors or weight scales. This integration allows for automated fruit sorting based on size, color, or other quality parameters.
• The roller conveyor speed can be adjusted thanks to the frequent converter on the motor to adapt to different capacity needs.

• The screw-type conveyor is used for conveying fruit waste(fruit peels, seeds, cores, etc.), it can also be used for elevating or conveying bulk materials such as grains, sugar, food powder, and flour in the food processing industry.
• The whole system is made of a rotating screw, a frequency motor, a frame and a cover. When working, as the screw rotates, it moves the fruits or other food materials forward of the conveyors.
• The screw conveyor can also be made food grade SUS304, rubber or PVC materials.
• The size, pitch, and design of the screw can be customized based on the specific fruit or conveying material and application requirements.
• Low energy, high transmission efficiency.

• The belt conveyor is suitable for conveying fruits such as bananas, apples, carrots, mangoes and pineapple fruits, etc. It can be matched with a washing machine and sorting equipment to sort out good fruits from bad fruits.
• The belt conveyor is composed of stainless steel racks and supports, a food-grade polymer material mesh belt, a frequency motor, and safety emergency start/stop buttons.
• The belt conveyor height, width and length can be customized according to different materials handling and different procession occasions.
• It has the feature of continuous production, wide application for fruit conveying, speed adjustable control, gentling handing, high efficient, low noise, fully automatic, food grade production, low energy consumption and low maintenance.
