How does the outfeed vibrator/shaker deck benefit the process?

Is this unit suitable for delicate products?

What kind of maintenance is typically required?

Routine maintenance typically involves cleaning the tanks, checking pump functionality, inspecting spray nozzles for blockages, and ensuring all moving parts, such as the vibrator, are in good working order.

Can this machine be integrated into an existing production line?
