Z-Shaped Bucket Feeding Conveyor for Packaging Lines
Z-Shaped Bucket Feeding Conveyor is designed for automatic product feeding to high dosing systems in packaging lines for free-flowing, granular, small-piece and fragile products.
The conveyor supplies product from the loading hopper to the dosing unit and is especially suitable for integration with multihead weighers, as well as selected volumetric dosing systems used in vertical packaging lines and complete packaging complexes.
The Z-shaped bucket design is used when product must be lifted to a higher dosing point while maintaining controlled feeding and reducing mechanical impact on the product.
This conveyor is suitable for packaging complexes where the dosing system is installed above the packaging machine, including high multihead weighing systems and certain volumetric dosers. The bucket transport principle helps feed the product accurately and steadily before dosing.
Depending on the product and sanitary requirements, the conveyor can be supplied in painted steel or stainless steel execution. A standard vibrating hopper with a volume of 160 litres is available, while a 120-litre hopper can be used for fragile products.
Z-Shaped Bucket Feeding Conveyor can be integrated into SIGITASPAK packaging lines with VFFS machines, multihead weighers, linear weighers, volumetric fillers, checkweighers, metal detectors and other equipment for manufacturers in the UAE, GCC countries, the Middle East, Africa and other international markets.
