All the answers for your questions.
IS THE LOADING STATION A QUALITY PRODUCT?Most definitely. The loading station adheres to the strictest quality standards imposed by the leading food sector companies across the world.
WHICH TYPES OF CONTAINERS CAN I USE?
Any type. Apollo Universal uses the most common containers available on the market, including Stork GP, Meyn, Linco, Anglia - but can also take cages constructed on site. Different types of containers can even be used during the same loading session: a simple computer command is all it takes.
The loading station can be used with any type of system. It mechanically connects to the conveyor belt as it exits the facility, and to the poultry shed switchboard, so that all conveyor belts work simultaneously.
WHAT IF IT GETS VERY COLD OR VERY HOT?
The loading station works very well between temperatures of -40° C (-40° F) and +50° C (122° F), both inside and outside the poultry sheds.
AND IN TERMS OF CLEANING?
The loading station has a fully galvanised body and its main components are made from stainless steel, making the machine very easy to wash and disinfect. All of this leads to a significant increase in Biosecurity.
