Eriez® Offers High Speed Cross Feeders for Packaging Lines
Erie, PA - Eriez® offers a wide range of electromagnetic cross feeders and conveyors designed for use in packaging applications. These high speed, high deflection and high volume vibratory cross feeders and conveyors distribute product into weigh scale equipment. Feeders can be equipped with a peripheral discharge to insure the best product distribution on the radial scale cone. Models are available to deliver nearly any capacity of material.
Eriez' HS (High-Speed) and HD (High Deflection) vibratory feeders featuring low energy, AC electromagnetic drives provide superior reliability, precise cycling and low operating cost. The high deflection series is recommended when feeding lightweight, loose or sticky materials where a higher deflection (3/16") and lower frequency (30 cps) produces more accurate feed characteristics. Both HS and HD series use the same style AC drive, enabling systems to cycle up to 100 times per minute.
Eriez' VMC Series Electromagnetic Conveyors use a two-mass vibrating system also powered by electromagnetic drives. The VMC is an excellent choice when longer trays are required. Specially designed corrosion-resistant fiberglass springs amplify the stroke and are adjustable for easy fine-tuning of the conveyor's motion. They use no sliding or rotating parts that wear out, or belts and bearings that eventually will need to be replaced. A variable voltage controller allows "watch-like" precision in the control of conveyor amplitude. Units are available for base or suspension mounting.
Eriez' cross feeders can be supplied with a peripheral discharge and/or screens to eliminate fines or damaged product during packaging.
