Cleaning difficulties

Every minute you spend disassembling a product to clean it you lose valuable production time. Every batch you throw out because of contamination from trapped or undischarged material, is lost profit. Every time you send a worker up a ladder to change a filter or pull an auger from a flexible screw conveyor is a potential lost-time accident. All the uncontained dust that enters the plant environment, covers your floor or equipment is a potential health hazard or housekeeping headache.

That is why when choosing your material handling equipment you want it to be easy to disassemble, easy to clean, and when your process calls for it, easy to sanitize.

Cleanbility is a top priority in Hapman design.

Our designs keep dust from escaping into the air so you don’t waste time and labor cleaning it up. Our  Hi/Lo Helix^® flexible screw conveyor lowers so you can pull augers without using a ladder. If sanitizing is critical to your process, we build your units with 304 stainless steel, sealed motors and controls rated for washdown applications. Our engineers use special coatings, such as Teflon^®, to improve product flow and resist staining. Install reverse-pulse filter cleaners, vibrators and individually controlled spray wash ports so you can clean faster, more thoroughly.
