Gap Transporter

Use
• Provide a gap in consecutive conveyors to prevent spilled product for reaching downstream equipment.
• Rotate round containers.
• Mechanical cap inspection system.
• Provide access for marking and inspecting the bottom of containers.
• End transfers for unstable products.

 

Description
The system consists of two parallel belts, with variable speed. These belts are adjusted horizontally until they contact the product, squeezing it with a minimum force.

 

Operation
• By rotating a hand-wheel, the operator can open or close each side of the gap transporter
independently (dual motor) or both sides at the same time (single motor) to adjust for different size products.
• A digital counter ensures the exact repeatability of the setting.
• Minor adjustments due to material variances (such as bottle diameter) can be performed easily and promptly.
