Multi-Conveyor (Winneconne, Wisconsin) – Multi-Conveyor has recently built several specially designed and manufactured conveyors to improve the ergonomics of the semi-automatic conveyance of very heavy dry products in sealed paper bags filled with powders.
Filling and sealing stand-up bags requires operators to manually move the product so that it lies flat for initial shipment from the bulk bag room. The multi-conveyor has been specially designed with a slight 8″ slope to lift bags to a more comfortable height for manual positioning. Bags up to 55 pounds that used to fall slightly flat now fall 4 inches, laying flat and evenly on non-powered gravity rollers for a consistent discharge direction.
Belt-driven multi-flush conveyors replace manually operated gravity rollers to move weighed product easily and safely to the level of the pallet area with built-in heavy-duty stops. Again, all of this is at the ideal height for manually moving bags onto a pallet while respecting OSHA’s best ergonomic guidelines.
The customer also asked Multi-Conveyor to provide a conveyor that could be easily dismantled and reassembled at various locations in the plant. Our team of engineers develops the ideal solution for the individually driven sectional conveyor. The system can be moved, reconfigured or shortened with a simple dowel mounting bracket assembly and 1 pin locking mechanism.
Key built-in conveyor safety features include traditional shaft guards, finger guards, end caps, motor heat shields and proper operator safety labels. These sections require a special locking and swivel caster design with detents to allow for easy carrying while providing and maintaining stability during use.
Although it is a dry-running product, the customer required the entire system to be completely hygienic, with built-in flush level control, including stainless steel construction, and modifiable port cleaning guides. Now, this forethought and minimal investment essentially guarantees increased ROI for clients through increased use of this system as the client expands its product line. Now it’s planning ahead.
