EXTENDED DISCHARGE
When space is limited on a production line, and a standard friction
feeder is too large to be placed adjacent to, or over the line, an extended
discharge allows easy access for the precise placement of these items onto
or into the product loading zone. This design provides clients with a much
broader applications capability, while assuring accurate high speed counting
and placement of their inserts.
The long discharge table can be used to label product directly onto the
discharge of the feeder with a ink jet or labeling machine. The longer
discharge can also be used to mount a bar code reader or a vision system onto
the discharge of the feeder to inspect the product as it is fed.
For a typical application, the conveyor flight advances, and it is sensed
by the photo optic start sensor which allows the feeder to accurately place
the insert onto or into the moving item. The product then advances into the
next packaging operation such as shrink wrapping or horizontal form, fill and
seal, or cartoning.
