Issue:
Alba partnered with a well know chocolatier’s third-party logistics (3PL) firm (possibly the Easter Bunny) and engaged a challenging application involving transitioning pallets from a gravity roller conveyor at a low elevation, to a powered conveyor at a more traditional higher conveying elevation, turning a corner, and ultimately feeding a stretch wrapper.
Challenges:
The gravity conveyor sections needed to be at most, 10” in elevation allowing operators (also bunnies) the ability to build full pallets at a comfortable ergonomic height. The stretch wrapper being fed by the packing line needed to match up with a more typical 18” conveying height. In addition, the stretch wrapper’s location was off set from the packing lines due to space constraints.
Solution:
The lynchpin to the application was the use of a conveyor mounted to a low-profile lift table. This unit allows pallets at an inbound elevation as low as 7” top of roller to be efficiently raised to up to 42” top of roller. This is accomplished with Alba integrating a ZLS style Southworth lift table with the CDLR conveyor. The lift table’s scissor leg mechanism is located outside the lift’s platform, thus saving elevation. Alba’s CDLR conveyor is integrated onto the lift’s platform by Alba. After being elevated, the pallets would convey 90-Deg on a pneumatic turntable with conveyor top to align with wrapping line.
Resolution:
Due to Alba’s stand-alone components the project was able to quickly be installed and commissioned in time for Easter.
