Carton turners

Published on 4. February 2011

There are many examples where cartons need to be turned while travelling on a conveyor. The reasons can be quite varied such as the need for a fixed barcode scanner to see the bar code or to orient the carton for its next process such as a Robot pick off lane, taping machine or maybe to assist in simply transferring the carton to another conveyor.

MCL has developed and manufactured a wide range of carton turners that are operating effectively and efficiently in a variety of industries.  One of the first things to consider (apart from budget) when determining which carton turner will be best for a given application is carton orientation, for example are we turning from short edge leading to long edge leading or vice versa.Other considerations when selecting which turner will work best are the variety of carton footprints and product mass coming down the conveyor. Carton rates and the quality of the carton will also assist in forming the basis of the decision. Read complete article

Published on 11. November 2010

Modular Conveyors Ltd (MCL) manufacture a compact inline checkweigher made of stainless steel and designed for inexpensive weight monitoring and final checks of packaged products.

Checkweighers have evolved over time & have been developed to enable manufacturers to ensure their products remain within specification and provide accuracy and reliability in the harshest of environments.

Overfilling creates wastage, directly hits your company’s bottom line and can also damage the appearance of your product. MCL also offer the infeed and outfeed conveyors to their checkweighers. The outfeeds are linked with a reject device to transfer out of speciifcation product from the main line to a reject line. The infeeds are fitted with a stop or metering device to ensure that product is fed to the checkweigher in accordance with the capacity of the checkweigher. With their compact and rugged design MCL checkweighers are designed to handle all types of products and packages, ranging from bags and pouches, through cans, right up to trays and cartons. This design makes them easy to clean and maintain, thereby minimizing downtime
