Low roof? No problem!
When working on a layout, space is often a limiting factor. You need room to maneuver a forklift, and sometimes the walls or ceiling can feel like they’re closing in on you. Don’t forget about the mechanic who occasionally needs to check the machines. We have to work around all these limitations, but luckily, we have some tools to help.
Solving height restrictions
For example, consider a vertical bagger in a building with a low ceiling. The weigher with the infeed belt fits easily, but the vertical bagger, which is quite tall, needs to fit under the weigher. It doesn’t! Fortunately, there is a solution: a belt with dedicated slots where each portion sits and travels upward. This is called a Compartment Belt, and it makes it possible to get the product up to your desired height.
Maintaining speed and accessibility
Adding additional belts or machines to your setup can limit the speed, and we want to prevent this. That’s why a Compartment Belt consists of two belts and a bucket at the end. The belts run alternately, ensuring that there is always a portion ready for your bagger. An additional advantage is that you create space around the bagger, making everything easily accessible.
