Cablevey’s enclosed tubular conveyor eliminates coffee bean breakage One of Japan’s most respected coffee producers turned to Cablevey Conveyors to overcome a long-standing challenge in its production process: material breakage during conveying
Cablevey’s enclosed tubular conveyor eliminates coffee bean breakage
One of Japan’s most respected coffee producers turned to Cablevey Conveyors to overcome a long-standing challenge in its production process: material breakage during conveying In the competitive world of coffee manufacturing, the difference between good and exceptional often lies in how carefully raw materials are handled. For producers working with delicate green coffee beans, even small amounts of breakage can lead to reduced yield, inconsistent roasting, and diminished product quality. Recognizing this, one of Japan’s most respected coffee producers turned to Cablevey Conveyors to overcome a long-standing challenge in its production process – material breakage during conveying. Protecting a premium product Since its founding in 1953, Nippon Coffee Trading Co. has earned an enviable reputation for producing some of the highest-quality coffee in Asia. With annual sales reaching $86.7 million in 2015, the company’s growth has been driven by its uncompromising standards and commitment to quality at every stage of production, from sourcing to roasting to packaging.

Akona launches UK production of Cablevey systems
Material processing and handling solutions specialist, Akona Process Solutions, is now building Cablevey conveying systems in the UK, delivering faster lead times, lower costs and a smarter solution for European manufacturers. Previously produced exclusively in the US, the decision to co-locate production to the UK has been driven by customer demand and commercial strategy. With an increasing requirement for shorter lead times, reduced shipping costs and localised services, the shift enables Akona to respond more swiftly and efficiently without compromising Cablevey’s proven track record of quality. Production is already underway, with three UK-built projects in progress. The first system is due to be commissioned in Ireland in the next 3-4 months. “Customers have been asking for a locally manufactured Cablevey solution for some time,” said Akona’s Ben Ayrton, Managing Director Europe. “They want faster, more cost-effective delivery, with the confidence that comes from dealing with a regional partner who understands the regulatory and logistical landscape. We’re now in a position to meet that demand head-on.” The move also delivers significant commercial advantages for

Kason launches innovative design in circular screening technology
The new designed Precision-flo for weight adjustment on Vibroscreen simplifies eccentric weight adjustment for circular vibrating screeners Kason Corporation, part of newly formed brand, Akona Process Solutions, and a leader in screening, sifting and processing equipment, has launched an innovative design in circular screening technology: Precision-Flo. This new system significantly simplifies the process of adjusting the eccentric weights, which are crucial for the vibratory motion of their Vibroscreen circular screeners. Tool-free adjustment The traditional approach to adjusting eccentric weights in the industry is often a slow and complex process, typically necessitating the use of tools and partial disassembly. In contrast, the new Precision-Flo system effectively removes these complications by introducing a tool-free adjustment mechanism that is both rapid and efficient. This advancement is especially beneficial for operators for the initial setup of the screener, or for regularly modifying the amplitude settings for varied applications. No extra weights or adjustments In operation, the top
