Conveyor Belts for Rice Cake and Popped Snack Production Lines
The food-grade conveyor belts designed by RE PIETRO are a highly specialized solution for the efficient and safe transfer of delicate products such as cereal rice cakes and popped snacks. Each system is custom-built according to the customer’s specific plant layout, ensuring the perfect balance between performance, hygiene, and reliability. Customization is one of the key strengths, as it allows the equipment to precisely meet the production requirements of companies operating in the popped snacks and cereal rice cake sector, where product handling must be gentle yet consistently controlled.
The conveyor belts can be either flat or inclined, depending on the needs of the line. This flexibility makes it easy to integrate the machines into the various stages of the production process. The goal is to optimize internal flows, minimizing manual intervention and increasing production continuity.
The entire structure of the conveyors is made of stainless steel, the ideal material for the food industry due to its high resistance to corrosion, wear, and the frequent washing required by hygiene and sanitary standards. The food-grade modular plastic belt ensures smooth, stable movement and compliance with current regulations, while also making daily cleaning operations easier.
Another distinctive feature is the possibility of integrating scrap-collection tunnels into the conveyor system, designed to intercept any product residues or waste before they fall to the ground. This system helps keep the work area clean, reducing maintenance time and costs. The tunnels are designed to be easily opened and emptied, simplifying operators’ tasks and ensuring a high level of food safety.
