Case Studies
Modular Plastic Belt Conveyor System
Clients brief was to provide a suitable conveyor to take cakes from a decorating line. The cakes were hand transferred from the line into trays on the new conveyor which would pass them down to a lower level, through a metal detector, labeler and onto a Rotary Table for packing
Brief Specification |
|
| Conveyor Type | 200mm wide Plastic Modular Belt |
| Environment | Stainless Steel equipment for a Food Factory |
| Throughput | 0-25 trays per min |
| Number of Conveyors | One line with Rotary Table |
| Basic Control System | Variable Speed Control Unit |
Special Features
The Modular Belt Conveyor had to straddle the depositing line without impeding access.
Due to limited space, the decline section of the conveyor had to pass through a door area with two bends ensuring the trays fed the labeller correctly with a space between each tray.
The Client wished to do the installation, so we had to manufacture it in sections which could be put together with the minimum of knowledge.
Clients Requirement:
The Client had just received a large order, so we had a short time to liaise with the Client and other supplier’s equipment to meet a tight deadline within a set budget.
