Common questions.
Straight answers.
Hygiene, materials of construction and dust control — the questions food and beverage engineers ask us most.
Q/01Are Stellex food and beverage conveyors SS 304 or SS 316?
Both. For dry, non-corrosive products like flour, sugar and grains we typically supply SS 304. For dairy powders, salt, acidic ingredients and CIP-cleaned lines we use SS 316 or 316L with electropolished welds.
Q/02How do you prevent cross-contamination and allergen carry-over?
Conveyors are designed for full discharge with no dead spots, quick-release covers for inspection and food-grade FDA gaskets. Allergen lines can be dedicated, color-coded and built CIP-ready for wet wash-down between products.
Q/03Can your screw conveyors be cleaned in place (CIP / SIP)?
Yes. CIP-ready troughs, hollow-shaft drains, removable screws and spray-ball arrangements are standard options for hygienic food and dairy duty. SIP-rated builds for sterile applications are also available.
Q/04How do you control dust during bag dumping and powder transfer?
We integrate bag dump stations with built-in pulse-jet dust collectors, dust-tight tubular screw conveyors and bin vent filters on receiving silos. Closed pneumatic conveying is used where dust generation must be eliminated entirely.
Q/05What throughput ranges do Stellex food-industry systems handle?
Stellex food and beverage conveyors are built across a range of capacities — from precision dosing of additives at a few kilograms per hour to bulk transfer of grain and sugar at several tonnes per hour, sized to the customer's process.
