Conveying versatility

FleetwoodGoldcoWyard has revealed its AMBEC Baseblow air conveyor.

The conveyor utilizes air, along with louver patterns in the air deck, to convey containers such as metal cans, PET bottles, HDPE bottles, caps, pucks and boxes.

Although each application is unique, metal cans can be typically conveyed at speeds of 2,000 cpm while PET or HDPE bottles are transferred at 500 bpm.

The AMBEC Baseblow air conveyor requires minimal maintenance as compared to a mechanical conveyor.

It allows containers to remain upright so there are no downed containers, and the lightning-fast gap-makeup capability allows for condensed layouts or increased accumulation.

Optional features include rapid adjust hold-downs, auto-adjust rails for quick changeover, customized louver patterns, and transfers to and from a mechanical conveyor.
