Sigpack Systems Div., a Bosch Packaging Technology Co.: Row alignment system

The DMY is constructed of a series of rollers that turn at varying speeds--creating 4 zones, each with a "wave crest" and a "trough"--to accelerate or decelerate products as necessary to collect them in rows and also space the rows appropriately.
