The Customer Challenge!

The Split Belt Powered Conveyor was created for a customer with a wide range of products, who needed print for expiry date and lot number for the bottom of a container. The respective containers would get filled with food products then get a clear overwrap film. Once their food product is wrapped, it has to be marked with a production date, time, lot number, and expiry date.

The wrapped products will be coming from an automatic l-bar sealing machine at about 60 products/min and cannot be filled. Therefore our engineers decided to design the conveyor system to receive the product from the customers’ conveyor, mark the bottom and transfer it onto customers’ existing downstream equipment for further processing.

Our Solutions

Products & Industries that Can Use the Dartronics Split Belt Powered Conveyor:

The conveyor system can be used in the bakery, contract manufacturing, distribution facilities, resellers, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, and beverage industries. And can be used on bakery products, filled cartons, pharmaceutical round bottles (Plastic or Glass), blister packs, thermoformed packages, tapered wall container coding, and cosmetic containers.

Our custom conveyor system not only possess industry versatility, but it solves a wide range of problems:

• • The split-belt eliminates having to flip products and prevents spills. For example: while marking filled plastic containers with hot soup, you would not want to flip that product to label it.
  • It marks cartons on the fly!
  • Creates less of a carbon footprint
  • The compact design can be customized to fit the end of any existing machine.
  • The conveyor system is on locking casters and can be moved to any production line in the facility without having to move existing equipment.
