Container Management

Overview

VG Container Indexing Gates:

• Pneumatic Container gates designed for mounting directly on 1/2” Value Guide rails.
• No external mounting brackets or hardware are mounted onto the conveyor frame.The elimination of gating hardware on the conveyor frame greatly reduces set-up & cleaning time. The VG Gates can be positioned anywhere on the Value Guide rails
• Compact precision indexing gates with 2 gating tines, above & below the guide rails to ensure stable containers under the nozzles during the fill cycle.

NCD Neck Centering Device:

• Aligns container necks for clean nozzle entry with unstable bottles.

• Adjustable V-Blocks are pneumatically actuated to clamp and align the container necks to ensure precise positioning for clean nozzle entry.

CAD Container Alignment Device:

Aligns containers with offset necks or angled pour spouts for precise nozzle entry.
Pneumatically actuated & synchronized with container indexing
A custom neck alignment jig with scallops to suit the container profile will tilt the containers so that the neck openings are in a vertical position for a clean nozzle entry.

FDT Flush & Drip Tray:
• Programmable for use as a Flush tray during set-ups and cleaning operations
• Programmable to move under the nozzles after every cycle to catch drips.
This is a key feature when running sub-surface filling nozzles.
