Walking Beam

A brand new range of high speed container transfer systems based up on the walking beam principle were launched during 2005. 2006 saw further developments, with machines being added to the range that are able to fill containers at speeds of 100/minute by means of weight control. These machines are based on high performance servo technology and provide a stable & fast transfer system for rigid containers where alternative in-line transfer systems such as rope or chain conveyors are unsuitable. Filling options include high accuracy program forward weight controlled filling, with facilities for vibration at fill points to compact difficult products. Full de-ionization systems are also available.

Any form of dosing / dispensing heads can be integrated to suit an extremely broad range of filling requirements.

Walking Beam System
NEW MACHINE LAUNCH

‘EasiFill’ EF-III/PB Gravimetric Siamese Auger filler

Featuring direct drive servo system for use in automatic bag / box presentation machines

The design shown is for use with a Vertical form Fill & seal machine where accurate weighing of portions is required to maintain productivity and remove the requirement of Re-Work. Each discharge is dynamically weighed during filling to ensure exact weight, and discharged alternatively from two filling points, into a collection tube with timing flap. This timing flap reduces the possibility of dust in the sealing area & enables good speed with accuracy on difficult to handle products such as food & Bakery ingredients.

As each portion is weighed, statistical data can be sent via an Ethernet connection to a networked PC or server reference & traceability. Data includes production speed, throughput KG, Batch Size, Standard Deviation, Average weight, min & max weight, no of discharges & CP (Control process data CP CPk+ CPk-). A high resolution colour touch screen continually shows the status of the machine, the weights of each discharged portion and current batch & shift filling statistics.

Recipe recall & bulk product feed set up can also be stored to a Bar code and subsequently selected using bar code reader. This ensures machine set-up integrity without the worry of human error.

The equipment displayed is capable of, but not limited to:-

Making weighed portions from 500 gram to 5000 gram.
Portions above 2500 gram based on double discharge, i.e. both weigh-pans.

- Capacities guaranteed to be:

  • 25-30 portions/minute at 500 – 1500 gram
  • 20-25 portions/minute at 1501 – 2000 gram
  • 15-20 portions/minute at 2001 – 2500 gram
  • 10-12 portions/minute at 2501 – 5000 gram

- Accuracies:

  • 500 to 1500 gram -10 / +10 gram
  • 1501 to 2000 gram -10 / +15 gram
  • 2001 to 2500 gram -15 / +20 gram
  • 2501 to 5000 grams -15 / +20 grams
