The aluminium modular system is an excellent choice for bottle handling, with its long conveyor runs and flexible layouts, and can be endlessly reconfigured due to its component systems.
In addition, the plastic chain comes right to the edge of the conveyor body, permitting very tight side-transfers, for maximum bottle stability.
Specialist solutions include:
- Elevation systems, linking different parts of the plant, and opening up floor space
- Bottle inverting, air-rinsing and top-covers, for eliminating contamination
- Walk-throughs, for pedestrian and fork-lift access
- Alpine buffers (in-line and off-line styles)
- Accumulation tables
- Tight footprint solutions for constrained layouts.
- Neck-guiding
- Vacuum systems; used for very unstable bottles, or for additional control at vision system inspection
- Diverting/merging
- Controlled transport of pre-forms
- Bulk handling of caps and other loose items, via belt and carton conveyors
- Raise-lower systems for managing differing conveyor heights
