NK Automatic Fall-Damper: Eliminate Product Damage from High Drops

Protect the value of your crop at every stage of your line with the KMK NK Automatic Fall-Damper. This essential device is engineered to solve a common problem: product damage caused by long falls from conveyors. By cushioning the descent of vegetables from heights of over 4 meters, the NK Fall-Damper virtually eliminates impact bruising, preserving the quality and marketability of your produce.

This is not a standalone machine, but a versatile component designed to be easily mounted wherever you need it most—at the end of high conveyors, at transfer points, or feeding into tall bunkers.

Smart, Gentle, and Automatic Lowering

The NK Fall-Damper creates a gentle cascade for your crop using a series of up to 18 shock-absorbing "sails" made from robust, two-layer PVC. Instead of a damaging free-fall, your vegetables are gently guided downwards.

The system's intelligence lies in its automation. An ultrasonic sensor mounted at the bottom constantly measures the level of the product pile underneath. As the pile grows, the fall-damper automatically retracts its sails in real-time, always maintaining the shortest possible drop distance. This "set it and forget it" system guarantees the gentlest possible handling from the first vegetable to the last.
