Multi-Level Buffer Systems with Lifts

Task: Fully automatic transport and buffering of plastic parts

Plastic parts (e.g. power outlets in wall casings) are produced on four moulding injection machines.
The parts shall be conveyed from production area into storage area and stored temporarily in wooden boxes or cardboard boxes
For each machine a buffer capacity of 96 containers, 820 x 520 x 390mm or 600 x 400 x 550mm shall be realised.
Production has to run fully automated a complete weekend.
Available space is max. 12 x 13m.
Due to fire protection production und stock are separated from each other by a solid concrete wall.

Solution: Buffer system with Multi-Tech lift and floor conveyor belt

Buffer System consisting of a Multi-Tech Lift and a multi-level buffer with 4 resp. 5 levels, combined with one Multi-Rounder distributor and one machine discharge conveyor per injection moulding machine
The belt outlet of each machine discharge conveyor is connected to an aluminium chute, which goes through the fire protection wall
In the warehouse, the parts fall from the chute onto the distributor, which fills the containers in pairs on the Multi-Tech lift
When the containers are full and conveyed to a higher level by means of the lift, the Multi-Rounder slews to the side in order to prevent clashes with the lift conveyor
