Case Study: Precision Screening for Pea Grading with Laser-Cut Vibratory Conveyor Screen

Challenge

The client’s current screening solution did not meet the accuracy requirements for pea grading. The requirement to achieve standard apertures of 2mm width posed a challenge for the manufacturing process, as traditional fabrication processes were not precise or consistent enough to meet it.

Solution

VCSP utilised high-quality laser-cutting technology to produce a customised vibratory conveyor screen that met the client’s specifications. The laser cutting process allowed for:

• Accurate and consistent apertures precisely 2mm in width
• Clean cuts with smooth edges, reducing product damage
• Custom fitment to the existing vibratory conveyor system for easy installation and integration

This precise screening solution improved the grading process, reducing waste and improving product quality.

Benefits

• High Precision: Each aperture was cut to exact specifications, ensuring optimal grading performance.
• Improved Product Quality: Cleaner cuts and precise apertures minimised pea damage and loss, enhancing the final product.
• Custom Manufacturing: The screen was tailored to fit the existing conveyor setup seamlessly, avoiding costly system modifications.
• Technological Advantage: Use of laser cutting demonstrated VCSP’s capability to deliver technically advanced, custom solutions to meet demanding client needs.

Conclusion

VCSP’s precision laser-cut vibratory conveyor screen provided a highly effective solution for pea grading, combining precise aperture sizes with durable, hygienic construction. This innovation improved grading accuracy and product quality for the client while showcasing VCSP’s engineering expertise and commitment to bespoke conveyor solutions.
