Key Technology offers the most complete source of high-performance optical sorting, conveying, and other processing systems for potato processors.

To meet the needs of virtually every processor, Veryx and Optyx sorters improve the accuracy of foreign material (FM) and defect removal to optimize product quality and maximize yield. Ideal for continuously-fried potato chips, batch-fried potato chips, and many other potato snacks, Optyx inspects product on the belt from above and in the air from below. Veryx excels in applications that warrant chute-fed sorting or benefit from belt-fed sorting in-air with top-and bottom-mounted sensors.

Key’s conveyors include the versatile family of Iso-Flo shakers as well as Zephyr horizontal-motion conveyors, which gently move product at high capacities. By minimizing bounce, Zephyr reduces product damage, noise, and loss of seasoning and other coatings to maintain product quality.
