Introducrion

The Indexing and Shuttling systems from Deighton Manufacturing (UK) Ltd allow the user to transfer a narrow width product onto a wider belt for further processing or into a try for packaging or freezing. Able to process a wide range of products including meat, fish, potato and vegetable as well as bakery and confectionary the indexing and Shuttling systems provide a reliable, cost effective solution to your product handling requirements. The shuttle conveyors are available in widths of 200, 300, 400 & 600,, with stokes of up to 600mm as standard. Indexing and feeding conveyors are available in widths of 200, 300, 400 & 600mm with lengths from 1m.

Shuttle Conveyors

Operated from a single phase supply, the shuttle conveyors use a servo motor to retract the nose of the conveyor a pre-set distance. A variable speed drive wire belt conveyor allows the user to accurately adjust spacing between the product to ensure efficient placing of the item on the subsequent piece of equipment. As the product reaches the end of the conveyor it is identified by a sensor which signals the pneumatic system to retract the pre-set distance. During this operation the conveyor belt is continually moving, ensuring the distance between products remains constant. The nose of the conveyor is then slowly returned to its initial set position for the cycle to run again. If the system is to be used for a continuous production operation such as for further processing or freezing then this system would be used in conjunction with a variable speed feeding conveyor of suitable width.

Indexing System

When used in conjunction with a P Series Formatic (Position & Count) and Indexing Conveyor. The Shuttle Conveyor provides an effective solution for the filling of trays or packaging. The P Series Formatic allows an adjustable, pre-set number of products to be deposited on the continuously moving integral conveyor before a delay which creates a gap between batches. The conveyor and drum speeds are adjustable to accurately set the spacing between products. The products are then led onto the shuttle conveyor before being dropped onto the indexing conveyor. The indexing conveyor is positioned underneath the shuttle conveyor and trays are manually placed on the end of the conveyor. The trays are then transported forward to a sensed stop position to await the first line of product. Once deposited the conveyor moves the tray forward a set amount of time and stops to wait for the following line. The quantity of lines dropped and distance moved between lines is adjustable and once the final line is dropped and the tray is filled it is moved to the end of the conveyor for removal.

 

  1. The EconoFry is the versatile, cost effective frying solution for small, medium and large producers.
  • The digitally controlled heating and continuous conveyor system ensures a wide variety of products are fried to a consistently high standard. Having the ability to flash fry or fully cook, the EconoFry is suitable for a vast array of produce from spring rolls, onion bhajis and falafel to fish fingers, burgers and chicken nuggets.
  • The EconoFry forms part of the Deighton Manufacturing (UK) Ltd further processing line and is available in widths of 200, 300, 400 & 600mm.

 2.IN Details

The EconoFry is an electrically heated fryer with elements immersed directly into the insulated frying tank for the most efficient heat transfer.

 This method imparts 97 – 99% of the heat directly into the oil using low density elements so as not to degrade the quality of the cooking medium. The system runs on a three phase supply and is simply operated from a central control panel.

 The product passes between the bottom conveyor and adjustable hold down conveyor (supplied as standard), ensuring continuous emersion in the cooking oil at all times, along the length of the fryer. Cooking time and temperature are completely adjustable, enabling the producer to finely adjust the appearance and level of readiness of each individual product.

Complete with oil level detection and automatic low level cut-out system, removable conveyor unit and hinged element enclosures, the EconoFry offers a safe and easy to maintain solution to your frying requirements.

  • The EconoCrumb has been developed to make the automated process of crumbing formed or batter coated product accessible to small and large volume producers.
  • Designed to handle numerous types of crumb, the EconoCrumb enables the operator to enjoy maximum versatility with their product range at an affordable cost whilst maintaining its reliability and ease of operation & cleaning.
  • The EconoCrumb forms part of the Deighton Manufacturing (UK) Ltd further processing line and is available in widths of 200, 300, 400 & 600mm.
  • Operating from a three phase supply, the EconoCrumb can be installed as a stand alone unit or as a part of the forming and processing line. A single control panel operates the variable speed conveyor that transfers the product through the unit. The conveyor is submerged in a bed of crumb ensuring that, as the product passes along the conveyor, a full & even coating is applied to the underside of the product. The conveyor moves the product through the crumb “curtain” showering a consistently accurate coating to the remaining areas. The thickness of crumb bed and curtain are fully adjustable to achieve the desired weight of coating.
  • The fully coated produce proceeds to pass underneath a compressing roller which gently compacts the crumb around the product, before any excess is removed by the variable pressure air knife.
  • The excess crumb is recycled through the auger and transferred back to the hopper, allowing the operator to minimize product wastage.
