Bi-Directional Accumulation Tables from Nercon |
||
 |
Line stoppages can happen in virtually any production operation. Nercon's Bi-Directional Accumulation Table provides temporary storage space for products when normal production flow is interrupted due to momentary product blockage, malfunction or machine adjustment. When the blockage is cleared, stored products are automatically fed back onto the primary conveyor line at the proper speed.

Nercon offers multiple designs of discharge conveyors on accumulation systems. A typical configuration is a single filer to bring the product flow to a single line of products. Nercon's accumulation tables are found in the food packaging, beverage, household and light industrial industries (shown left.) |

Adding a sweep bar (shown left) to an Accumulation Table will insure the complete unloading of the table, with no product remaining on the deadplate.

How the Accumulation Table Works When a conveyor line stoppage occurs, a limit switch activates the motor on the table. The table's belt moves at a right angle away from the conveyor line to load the table. Temporary storage for containers, excess bottles or cans is provided while production continues upstream. A limit switch stops the operation when the table is full. When the blockage is cleared, the table automatically reverses the belt movement, unloading the table into the conveyor line. Stored products are fed back onto the primary conveyor line at the proper speed, minimizing pressure by blending stored products with the normal flow of the production line. |
