Merge and combine technology basically
Merge and combine technology basically means you’re taking multiple lanes down to single lane. Options can be simplistic to elaborate based on product flow, speed, cost, footprint and other job specific application criteria.
A basic 2 to 1 dual-lane belt merge, is typical when the use of servos exceeds budget. We use "speed to length ratios" for precise product stagger at the merge.
Another popular option is activated roller belt or ARB by Intralox (www.intralox.com/). In the video we show two manual hand pack stations that feed the ARB for a super simple, seamless merge. Next, we show a metering conveyor that gaps two lanes of product into a single lane flow using DARB which is dual-stacked angled roller belt.
Many merges incorporate pulse and photo-eye sensors; logic processor, servo motor controllers and VFD's, to develop a new merge solution that alleviated the gaps between the product while allowing for more consistent spacing.
One application originally requested three separate 2:1 combiners. However, Multi-Conveyor’s engineers realized a much smaller footprint 4:1 combiner would achieve (or exceed) the same production output by using blade stops, commonly referred to as traffic cop, to merge four lanes of traffic down to one, saving the customer both space and money.
In contrast, Multi-Conveyor once created a 2:1 dual lane belt merging to one lane, that servo roll diverts into 5-lane accumulation, then merges back from the 5:1 to a reduced flow single file. Very cool.
The video also shows more sophisticated technologies used in vertical stack, bi-level, inject, multi-elevation and asynchronous merge systems. Our electrical team may include: vacuum metered belting; processor-to-servo controller communications; Ethernet/IP CIP encoders; sensing logic; VFDs; time released gap inject, to name a few.
We'll combine lanes; levels, starts or stops, creating a precision merge for your products that matches or surpasses your project requirements. Let's do this.
