Materials handling specialists, Industrial Conveying are filling a hole in the food processing sector as specialists and complete equipment suppliers that obviate the requirements for third party consulting engineers.

With a track record in materials handling and bulk handling solutions and a manufacturing base in Victoria, Industrial Conveying specialise in conveyor-based handling solutions for general food production, confectionery, bakeries, dairy and cheese production.

The key to their food industry solutions is that all items are fabricated from food-grade stainless steel, which is  easy to clean and maintain at the end of a shift.

All solutions use electrical component technologies rated to IP65. Conveyors are easily integrated with pallet handling systems, robotics, control and sensing technologies as well as AGVs (automatic guiding vehicles) to eliminate forklifts and better tie in with dock operations.

The automated storage warehouses reduce manual flow and allow faster handling of products, which is especially important when perishables are being handled.

To increase the operations speed and reduce double handling, solutions can be factored with the latest computerised tracking system.

For distribution management, the sorting of products can be specific so as to cater to perfect order distribution for any recipient operating branches scattered throughout Australia.

Industrial Conveying’s food sector solutions can be configured to automatically select and distribute orders. This setup aims to ensure that the logistics end of the processing is as streamlined as possible, helping it link with the expectations of big retailers and distribution centres.

With all food industry projects, accuracy and delivery of all components and a finished system can be viewed in the digital environment before any construction commences.

Industrial Conveying’s design engineers are equipped with powerful software technologies, which provide all appropriate finite analysis tests.
