Conveyor Combination as Distribution Device

Task: Precise distribution of plastic parts into large containers

Plastic parts are packed in bags and have to be distributed into two big containers
The cycle time for one bag is approx. 10 seconds
The bags have to be counted within the conveying system, a counting signal from the bag machine is not available
Rejected bags (potential free signal from bagging machine) have to be sorted out

Solution: Conveyor belt combination with inclined conveyor and small conveyors

Combination of a reversible Small Conveyor Type IL to separate rejected parts, a Z-angled conveyor and a second reversible Small Conveyor which is mounted in a 90° angle to distribute the bags into two big containers
Double light sensors at the outlet of the Z-Conveyor to count the bags (without counting cleats)
Stable carriage for all three conveyors including the control unit
Siemens S7 PLC with three colour signal light and inputs for light barriers to control if boxes are in position
Confirmation buttons for box exchange
Signal exchange to the bag machine via Harting-plugs
