Heat and Control says its release of the FastBack 4.0 is the latest revolution of horizontal motion conveying technology. The 4.0 is the result of more than 10 years development and multiple international patents, with a history going back 25 years and three generations before it.

Recognised as the number one brand in its class, Heat and Control says its reputation is unmatched for near zero breakage and product damage, no loss of coatings or seasonings, greatly reduced sanitation and associated down time, quiet, smooth, and trouble-free operation.

Heat and Control, Inc. president Tony Caridis says, “Investing in continued innovation is at the heart of what we do at Heat and Control. Ensuring high performance that provides results are a priority when we undertake design development such as FastBack 4.0.”

The conveyor is smaller and thinner to fit in a wide variety of locations, reverses instantly giving more control over product handling, and has an ultra-quiet 70db range. There are no pinch points or moving arms to cover and to protect which further improves the working environment. Heat and Control says FastBack 4.0 provides higher travel rates than any other horizontal motion conveyor.
