Multi-Conveyor Builds Product Settling Conveyor

The system is designed to settle small cups of individually packaged granulated beverage inside of open-flap cases to ensure a level sealing surface when the corrugated case reaches the final packing area ahead.

Multi-Conveyor’s recently built series of six settling (or vibrating) conveyors are designed to facilitate product settling of filled, open-flap corrugated cases. Single lane product will end transfer on and off again in various sections of the customer’s existing line.

Tim Bori, Project Manager at Multi-Conveyor, shared more details on the prjoect … “We built a series of basic settling conveyors to vibrate small, sealed cups of a granulated dry beverage for optimum case packing.”

Each independent section is comprised of nearly 8 ft x 12 in. straight running plastic modular belting. The product settling process is actually achieved below the belting.

Bori continues, “The settling process is achieved by using a series of square shafts that are strategically placed in an offset position underneath the flat top belting, which causes the motion required for the settling process.”

The mild-steel, bolted construction, open frame design utilized both fixed and adjustable stainless steel flat bar guide rail brackets for double high extruded aluminum (w/UHMW cover) guide rails.

Stationary H-style tubular support weldment with adjustable articulating feet and single bolt mounting tab for floor anchors stabilize each conveyor section during the product settling process.

Bori concludes, “Settling conveyors are commonly requested to achieve a consistently level case for sealing purposes.”
