Small Piece Remover

The Small Piece Remover is an open-bed design machine with integral frame and endless sizing belt, used to separate smaller pieces of product from line flow.

The machine is factory set at a six-degree slope from infeed to discharge. The belt uses molded, food-grade plastic slats with pockets to perform sizing. Running at a right angle to product flow, the sizing belt forms a trough where product travels through the machine. The rolling cross-flow movement gently mixes and encourages product transfer.
