High-volume product distribution system
Modern production lines often face the challenge of efficiently distributing a high volume of randomly arriving products to multiple packaging machines. Maintaining consistent flow and preventing product damage are critical aspects in this process.
Distribute high product volumes efficiently
The Flowmaster by Houdijk is a product distribution system designed to handle the ‘on-demand’ distribution of large volumes of products to various downstream packaging equipment. This system is capable of accepting a random arrival of products and efficiently dividing them over multiple legs, such as tray loaders, slug wrappers, portion pack wrappers, or flexible loading systems. Each leg can receive different percentages of the product flow, allowing for flexible distribution. The Flowmaster ensures that products are carried flat on the belt, on their most stable bottom surface, to prevent squeezing or scuffing. This method not only maintains the integrity of the products but also minimizes the risk of damage during the distribution process.
Benefits
- Efficiently handles high volumes of product
- Flexible distribution to multiple packaging machines
- Prevents product damage through flat handling
- Allows different distribution percentages to each leg
- Minimizes risk of product squeezing or scuffing
