CONVEYOR 10″ x 16′ LONG STAINLESS TRAY CASE BOTTLE CONVEYOR

A Case/Tray Bottle conveyor is a specialized material handling system designed to transport bottles, jars, or cans after they have been filled, labeled, and packed into secondary packaging, such as cardboard cases, open-topped trays, or shrink-wrapped bundles. These conveyors are essential in end-of-line packaging to move products from packing machines to palletizers. Key Characteristics & Features: Structure: They are frequently built from stainless steel for durability and hygiene, often with adjustable stainless floor levelers. Belting: They typically use wide plastic modular belts or heavy-duty flat belts to provide a stable surface for cases and trays. Handling Capabilities: Designed to handle, turn, or transport heavy or bulky items like bottles in corrugated cases, trays with shrink-wrap, or loose crates. Automation Integration: They often feature product photo eye detection for automatic speed control and accumulation (buffering) to keep up with high-speed production lines. Flexibility: They often include adjustable side rails (sometimes with quick-release) to accommodate different tray or case sizes. Common Applications: End-of-Line Packing: Transporting packed cases from packers to palletizers. Variety Packing: Multi-lane conveyors can merge different products to create mixed variety packs. Food/Beverage Production: Moving bottles from filling and labeling stations to the packaging area. These conveyors ensure a consistent supply of products while increasing the efficiency of the packaging facility.
