manage incoming raw materials and<br />
optimize <strong>pro</strong>cesses, achieving the next<br />
level in operational efficiency.<br />
VERYX eliminates the need for manual<br />
inspection, which decreases labor costs<br />
and ensures more consistent FM and<br />
defect removal while maximizing yields.<br />
To ease use and simplify operator training,<br />
a highly intuitive UI <strong>pro</strong>vides different<br />
views to users of various levels depending<br />
on their needs. Recipe-driven operation<br />
ensures customers can count on consistent<br />
performance from their VERYX sorter<br />
day in, day out. Operator qualification<br />
requirements are reduced, allowing a<br />
minimally-skilled individual to become a<br />
<strong>pro</strong>ficient user of the system in one hour.<br />
most difficult-to-detect FM and defects.<br />
Pixel Fusion helps VERYX to better identify<br />
specific FM types and enable the optional<br />
FMAlert function to send a smart alarm if<br />
a critical quality <strong>pro</strong>blem occurs, so quick<br />
corrective action can be taken. FMAlert<br />
also saves a time-stamped image of<br />
every critical piece of FM detected by the<br />
sorter, which helps <strong>pro</strong>cessors document<br />
and pinpoint <strong>pro</strong>duct quality events and<br />
trends.<br />
Key equips every VERYX with their<br />
Discovery suite of software capabilities,<br />
which enables the sorter to collect, analyze<br />
and share data while continuing to sort<br />
<strong>pro</strong>duct. By harnessing data about the sort<br />
<strong>pro</strong>cess and about every object flowing<br />
through the sorter, Discovery can reveal<br />
patterns and trends that im<strong>pro</strong>ve sorting<br />
and control upstream and downstream<br />
<strong>pro</strong>cesses. The information that Discovery<br />
<strong>pro</strong>vides allows <strong>pro</strong>cessors to better<br />
Key manufactures equipment in both<br />
the US and Europe, supports customers<br />
worldwide and offers integration services,<br />
from pre-engineering to line start-up.<br />
Complete line solutions can include the<br />
integration of third-party equipment<br />
along with Key’s sorting, conveying and<br />

Quick and Gentle Mixing<br />
A diverse range of pet food is the trend of the moment. New <strong>pro</strong>ducts and firms of presentation are in demand.<br />
More and more importance is being placed on quality. The unique and very gentle mixing technology of<br />
the Inotec VarioMix can be optimally used for numerous applications in food and pet food <strong>pro</strong>duction. The<br />
VarioMix is characterized by extremely short mixing times, gentle <strong>pro</strong>cessing, optimum homogeneity of the<br />
<strong>pro</strong>duct, cooking and cooling functions as well as extremely fast emptying with smallest quantities of residual<br />
<strong>pro</strong>duct.<br />
With the VarioMix, both aggressive<br />
and gentle mixing are possible. The<br />
mixing spirals operate in individually<br />
adapted wave patterns and they are<br />
independently adjustable in speed and<br />
direction of rotation. The usable volume<br />
of the VarioMix ranges from 350 to 4,000<br />
liters and always <strong>pro</strong>vides sufficient<br />
power reserves thanks to generously<br />
designed drives. It is therefore perfectly<br />
suited for the <strong>pro</strong>duction of a wide variety<br />
of <strong>pro</strong>ducts in small batches, but is also<br />
ideal for rubbing large pieces of meat.<br />
