Description
Product infeed with 1 driven conveyor
4.2.3 Product transportation
A Chain system
B Product carrier
The continuously circulating chain system (A)
takes along one or more product carriers (B).
These product carriers have a fork-like shape,
allowing them to move between the infeed and
outfeed conveyors.
Impact forces occur when picking up and
putting down the product because the product
is abruptly brought to speed. If required, the
infeed and outfeed conveyors can be
positioned on a slight incline for picking up and
putting down the product more smoothly. This
will by nature be the case with a gravity
conveyor.
As the infeed is discontinuous, buffering product at the supply may be necessary in some
cases. If this is not possible and stops of the infeed are undesired, the rotation speed of
the machine can be brought in line with the speed of the infeed using a frequency
controller.
