Ideal For:
- Throughput higher than 40 products per minute
- Products larger than 4 in. x 4 in. (100 mm x 100 mm) and less than 60 lb. (27.2 kg)
- Merging products prior to sorting, scanning, labeling, printing, dividing, and turning operations
- Maintaining precise gapping while aligning and positioning products
- Handling non-rigid packages such as pouches, polybags, plastic shells, and items wrapped in shrink film—without pads or trays
For merging products reliably without changeovers, Intralox's ARB Merges are the perfect solution. They fluidly merge two or more lines into one without long accumulation lines and do not have issues with stop-and-go motion.
ARB Merge Features:
- Eliminate product damage caused by accumulation
- Eliminate jams, recirculation, and line slowdowns due to poorly positioned packages
- Achieve accurate product gapping within a short footprint
- Allow for higher throughput capacity due to continuous motion
- Eliminate complex controls and cost of ownership associated with servo merges
- No changeover required between production runs of different package types
- Significantly reduce maintenance compared to competing merge conveyors such as servo merges, combiner conveyors, combiner merges, lane merges, sawtooth conveyor merges, plow rail conveyors, and vertical belt merge conveyors
