Скачать или смотреть Flexible screw conveyors save maintenance and sanitation costs for a peanut processor

Nutco Inc. is hardly a household name, yet the company's peanut butter and roasted split peanuts are widely distributed throughout North America. Located in this small town north of Toronto, Nutco is one of Canada's largest peanut processors and Canada's biggest supplier of organic peanut butter to the U.S., and specializes in packaging most of its production for sale under private labels. Nutco also supplies peanut butter in bulk to confectioners and bakers.

This fall (2009) the company is designated to be elevated to Level II status for quality and food safety under the international standard SQF 2000 (Level III is the highest level). The award, a significant achievement, is the result of a vigorous audit and recognizes the company's efforts to improve its operations over a period of years.

Several years ago, for example, Nutco installed two bulk bag unloading systems for incoming peanuts and two flexible screw conveyors to transport peanuts and peanut fines within the plant. Besides improving efficiency, the equipment reduced manual handling and improved plant sanitation, says John Worrell, plant manager. "The flexible screw conveyors haven't needed any maintenance," he says, "and they require very little sanitation to speak of because they are completely enclosed."
