Single Rowing and Rejecting Wet Wipe Canisters - System Spotlight


This system was designed for a customer that wanted single row, reject, and transport canisters of wipes in preparation for case packing at a rate of 80 products a minute. To achieve this, a formation of products is first placed on the system from a pallet and are transported to an adjoining conveyor. When the pattern of products reaches the adjoining conveyor, a speed change incorporated into the surface of the conveyor slows the products so that products begin the transition one row at a time. As one pattern formation finishes, a second pattern of product is presented. Using guides, the products continue downstream in a single row. Sensors ensure that products are up-right during travel to the case packer. If any of the products are transported on its side, a side mounted reject kicker, will reject the prone product from the line.
