Challenge
- Many products are filled using high-performance systems and then require cooling
- As they are to spend as long as possible in the cooling cell, they are transported through the cooling spiral in multiple lanes
Solution
- The products are detected on the feed conveyor to the cooling system by means of a camera system
- This signals the position to the Motoman Picker, which then picks up the products accordingly and sets them down in two rows on the chain of the cooling tunnel
- The option of setting the products back down with an offset means that the conveyor can be used more effectively
- The airflow and thus the cooling effect is optimized in this way
Result
- Energy-efficient solution with small footprint and fast adaptability for product changes
