Several of FMC Technologies'
vehicles can be used in the food industry. One common application, as
shown in the photo above, is used for loading of food and/or trays into
sterilizers.
The Automated
Batch Retort vehicle is specially designed for
this application. It is equipped with gasketed stainless steel
body panels giving the vehicle wash-down capability. Hidden
underneath the conveyor deck, the chassis features a drain
pan with a remote drain valve to keep the vehicle and floor
clean in case of a messy load. Other features include zinc
plated casters, splash proof motors, and splash proof external
buttons and switches. A clear, flexible membrane covers the
operators panel for waterproofing.
Other FMC Technologies vehicles are well suited
to perform general material handling operations within the
food industry including raw material storage, raw material
transportation, finished goods storage and finished goods
transportation to the shipping area.. These vehicles include
Outrigger,
