Metos automatic ’HI-LO’ sorting unit with integrated tray
returning offers an ergonomic and effi cient solution for sorting
dishes. Tray returning is a recommended system for use in
personnel canteens where the handling of dirty dishes is not left
for the customer.
In tray returning systems the customer returns in the diningroom a tray with
dirty dishes onto a tray conveyor, which automatically transports the tray further
into the dishroom. There the personnel working with HI-LO unit pick up rubbish,
scrape food remains and sort trays into baskets. The tray will continue on the
conveyor and eventually it will be stacked in a tray dispenser, which can be
used for accumulating dirty trays. This way washing of trays can be performed
in the most suitable time e.g. after other dishes.
Automatic HI-LO unit has a basket conveyor. When the basket is fi lled, it can
be pushed on the conveyor to be transported into the dishwasher.
Working with HI-LO system is ergonomic. The height of the tray conveyor will
be optimally adjusted at the factory, minimising the height, depending on the
dishes used. The properly designed unit will help avoid unnecessary reaching out
and other unpleasent work positions. Unergonomic rotation of the back doesn’t
appear when working with HI-LO system. The personnel also have freedom for
lateral movements. Depending on the required capacity there can be one or
several people working at the HI-LO unit.
Automation and user friendliness reduce need for personnel compared to traditional
dish returning, sorting and manual dishwasher feeding.
HI-LO systems are always dimensioned and tailor-made according to customer
needs. Wide assortment of options enables success in every dishroom. Ask for
more information from your Metos sales person.
