Another crucial issue is the ever-increasing importance of safeguarding the health and safety of operators and production staff when handling food products that involve dust or manual handling of bagged ingredients. Legislation also provides guidelines on lifting limits for operators to protect them from injury. Russell Finex - with more than 70 years of experience in fine mesh separation - understands all of these issues well. Its ‘3in1’ sieving station combines three separate features designed to aid good manufacturing practice, and it can help food manufacturers conform to legislation. The sieving station consists of a low-level sack-tip platform with dust hood and integrated dust extraction port, a Russell Compact 600 sieve and optional magnetic trap, allowing the system to sieve and remove impurities from the bagged ingredients while protecting operatives’ health hazards caused by dust inhalation. The station is carefully designed and engineered to ensure the consistent quality and purity of food products. It also makes bag tipping and check screening of ingredients easy and safe for operators, adapts to existing production line requirements, and fits over the feed inlet of any proprietary mechanical or vacuum conveyor, or through the floor gravity discharge. It's compact, easy to install and operate, and is virtually maintenance free. The machines need no supervision, giving significant savings in labour and downtime costs. Russell Finex sieves are an integral production process in food manufacturing across the world, with thousands sold into every European country as a result of increasing legislative pressure. For nearly three-quarters of a century, Russell Finex has manufactured and supplied innovative sieving and flitration equipment to improve product quality, enhance productivity, safeguard worker health, and ensure powders and liquids are contamination-free in New Zealand’s food industry. FOREIGN MATTER DETECTION Food manufacturers in New Zealand are increasingly needing to cope with strict guidelines governing their industry. Ingredients and finished products have to be quality assured both during production and before dispatch to safeguard against customer compensation or litigation.
