Machinery design
Guaranteeing customized production strictly depends on the ability of the technical staff to design solutions that are qualitatively valid and always different. When designing the machinery, the staff also takes into account the spaces available in the destination location. Among the instruments for processing chestnuts in Carbognano there are the softener (designed to soften the chestnuts after drying to obtain the "mosciarelle"); product selection gauges, complete with customizable soundproofing panels; the strip elevator belts, ideal for loading and unloading operations of grit products, such as hazelnuts, chestnuts, but also almonds. Among the instruments proposed there are also the stand with lateral sides and stainless steel cone, the flour auger, a stainless steel machine useful for dosing and loading chestnut flour, the underground horizontal auger and the one on wheels, which allows adjust the inclination. To conserve the product, we recommend the purchase of silo containers, which are also fully customizable. The company's catalog also includes bucket elevators.
