Advances and Improvements in Conveyor Cleaning


You will likely end up with an aesthetically pleasing and sublimely delicious product. However, if you’ve ever been involved in the manufacturing of food and beverages, you can relate to a not so rosy process, with dirt and sticky materials a common gripe to contend with along the way.

Manual conveyor cleaning is a common practice in ensuring that Australia’s first-rate hygienic standards are met. But manufacturers are increasingly realising that installing the right spray nozzles can also do a great job for a conveyor cleaning routine.

In any case, there’s always a right spray nozzle that can be used for every need. The huge task however lies in finding the perfect nozzle to fulfil your need and building a reliable system for your bespoke application.

Properly automated, a functional conveyor cleaning system helps in the extensive cleaning process of an entire conveyor while efficiently using water. Best results are only possible with the right positioning of spray nozzles. Other things to consider also include nozzle size, flow rate, spray pattern and droplet size.

For example, a food manufacturer may only need to remove soil off fresh harvests, consequently requiring nozzles that are different from those that will be needed by a processed food manufacturer focusing on removing food scraps and sticky residues.
Tecpro Australia prides itself in offering a dynamic range of spray nozzles in the Southern Hemisphere.  The company additionally provides access to experts and consultants for professional advice and custom designs for any application-specific spraying system.
Tecpro Australia is a great place for custom fabrication of spray bars and manifolds. There are press-fit bars and fully welded bars available too, ready for connection to your air or water supply. For complaints on an inefficient conveyor cleaning system or installation of new automated systems, please contact Tecpro Australia today.

The ACP5 Form and Asbestos in NYC

ACP5 FORMS AND WHAT THEY MEAN The ACP5 form is crucially important for owners looking to take on any demolition, renovation or construction project subject to approval by New York City authorities, particularly when such project might involve disrupting Presumed Asbestos Containing Material (PACM). In this instance, an expert asbestos investigator will need to first carry out an asbestos survey, in order to safeguard workers and residents within the project area. However, the individual hired must have been duly certified by the New York City Department of Environmental Protection to carry out asbestos inspection service. Also, only asbestos investigators duly certified by the Department or New York State Department of Labor may be allowed to collect bulk samples for asbestos analysis. Bulk samples are collected for analysis to verify whether suspect materials contain traces of asbestos or not. And such analysis can be performed only within New York State Department of Health adm...

Use Cluster Nozzles for dust suppression

Ensuring the size of water droplets and dust particles are perfectly matched is a fundamental part of dust suppression  installations. However, there can be slight challenges in environments where only hydraulic pressure is used to produce a mass of very fine water droplets. Here’s where you need the CAY Cluster Nozzles come in. There are 7 orifices in the CAY Cluster Nozzle, ensuring that you get finer sprays obtainable in conventional single orifice full-cone nozzle. There is also a swirl generator in each nozzle - a design that ensures water droplets are spread in a wide circular spray of 130°, consequently generating a huge mass of fine mist driven by only hydraulic pressure. Apart from this, the 7 orifices use equal amounts of water and work under the same pressure as a nozzle with one orifice, thereby making the CAY Cluster Nozzle more economically viable and efficient. Applications The CAY Cluster Nozzles  can easily be installed and come with an inbuilt f...

The Ins and Outs of Asbestos Air Sampling and Air Quality Testing

Asbestos Air Sampling Transmission electron microscopy is preferably used for enhanced accuracy when carrying out air sampling of asbestos under an O&M program. While Phase Contrast Microscopy (PCM) is often employed for screening and for personal analysis of air sample, the caveat with the latter is its relative inability to efficiently differentiate asbestos from other particulate fibers which can be detected in air samples. Further, PCM analysis is established to be inaccurate in detecting thin asbestos fibers. It also doesn’t count short asbestos fibers which can be present in high concentrations when asbestos containing materials are disrupted. Thus, the comprehensive and reliable report derived using Transmission Electron Microscopy makes it more preferred for owners adopting supplemental air monitoring in their scheduled asbestos management program. Air Quality Testing The quality of indoor or outdoor air can make a huge difference in the health of individuals. Th...
