Continuous Process Solutions has introduced a range of innovative conveyor belt cleaning tools aimed at transforming operational efficiency in the food and chemical production sectors. With over two decades of experience in continuous process manufacturing, the company’s new cleaning systems are designed to improve belt cleanliness, reduce waste, and extend the longevity of conveyor belts—key factors that directly impact productivity.
Conveyor belts are critical in industries like food and chemical production, where hygiene and uninterrupted workflows are essential. A buildup of debris and contaminants can lead to unplanned downtime, increasing production costs and reducing the lifespan of conveyor belts. The introduction of adaptable conveyor cleaning solutions by Continuous Process Solutions addresses these pain points by offering a variety of tools such as brushes and scrapers, belt edge squeegees, spring-loaded diablo edge rollers, and pneumatic product side scrapers.
The standout innovation in their range is the motorized cleaning brush system, which can be easily adapted to different types of conveyor belts, including steel, wire mesh, or plastic. The motorized brushes are designed for easy maintenance—users can quickly remove the brush and tube from the main drive shaft for deep cleaning or replacement. This feature is especially valuable in industries where maintaining high hygiene standards is paramount, such as in the production of food products.
Made from stainless steel, the electro-pneumatic cleaning system includes a rise-and-fall function that allows easy removal for cleaning, further enhancing the flexibility of this solution. Additionally, users can choose from four types of brush bristles—nylon, stainless steel, brass, or bronze phosphorus—depending on the specific cleaning needs of their production lines. These brushes are securely welded to the shaft to prevent bristle loss, ensuring operational integrity and product safety.
According to Jarrod Hunt, Managing Director of Continuous Process Solutions, “Your cleaning solution will be bespoke, designed to suit your existing equipment, tailored to meet your hygiene requirements, and keep your downtime to a minimum, extending belt life.” The company provides a 230V control panel and a stainless steel catchment tray as part of its standard package, ensuring that the system is fully integrated into the production line with minimal disruption.
Continuous Process Solutions has already established a solid reputation, serving notable clients such as Finsbury Food Group, Bells Food Group, and McVitie’s. These partnerships demonstrate the effectiveness of the company’s cleaning solutions in high-demand production environments.
Beyond food production, the chemical industry also stands to benefit from these advanced cleaning systems. In chemical processing, maintaining cleanliness on conveyor belts can help prevent cross-contamination between batches and reduce product loss due to buildup or blockages. By employing these adaptable cleaning tools, chemical producers can achieve greater product consistency and minimize unplanned maintenance.
The introduction of adaptable conveyor belt cleaning systems by Continuous Process Solutions marks a significant advancement in both the food and chemical production industries. With tools that not only enhance cleanliness but also extend belt life and minimize downtime, these solutions are an essential investment for producers seeking to optimize efficiency while maintaining stringent hygiene standards. As companies increasingly prioritize sustainable and cost-effective operations, innovative cleaning systems like these will play a crucial role in keeping production lines running smoothly.
