An accumulator system temporarily stores and regulates product flow between machines on a packaging line. It buffers items during speed changes or downtime, keeping them organized and preventing jams so upstream and downstream equipment can continue running smoothly.
A retractable conveyor (“pullnose”) creates a safe walkthrough point in a conveyor line. Operators can pull the conveyor section back to pass through with minimal disruption, eliminating stairs or walkovers while automatically stopping and restarting the line for safe, efficient floor access. System can incorporate a push station to stop overall conveyance or utilize proximity sensors to disengage conveyors when the “nose” is pulled.

The High-Speed Divert System separates a single high-speed pouch stream into two controlled lanes for case loading. Using a smart infeed diverter, the system processes up to 320 products per minute while maintaining precise product orientation.
This captures randomly spaced products, stages them through indexing modules, and precisely releases them into a single merged lane. Sensors and motion control ensure correct spacing and timing, preventing jams and delivering products to downstream packaging equipment at consistent rates.
System that can take two streams of product and merge into a single lane. For higher surges of infeed product there are inline braking systems that can control product flow in order to prevent over feeding the merge system.
This smart infeed system temporarily buffers and stages product feeding a cartoner in a compact footprint. It synchonizes random product feeds, ramps up and launches product into a bucket conveyor at speeds of 120 ppm.
This robotic system picks items from one or more infeed lanes and places them into cases, combining high throughput with a compact footprint and flexible case formats. This is applicable for bag-in-box and clamshell-in-box applications.
System takes an infeed of product and uses “smart” technology to gap product on each module before entering the transfer. Stages vary in speed to create spacing. The transfer is timed with the bucket conveyor to hit the designated bucket.
