Automated Box-Filling Systems  
 

Multi-Level Container-filling and Storage Systems

Multi-level, automated box or bag-filling systems are an excellent way to maximize floor space and reduce labor costs. Options allow Crizaf systems to be individually configured to meet a wide range of special application needs. PLC programable logic controls allow systems to be easily reprogrammed to meet the needs of different applications. Systems can be designed to fill parts from one press or several. Carousel units, which can be used to fill either boxes or bags, can also be designed as multi-level systems.


Three-Level Box-Filling System with Lexan Safety Cover

Features:

  • A Lexan cover protects workers while still allowing the elevator operation to be monitored
  • A pneumatic cylinder rotates the feeding chute out of the way to allow room for the elevator to move up or down
  • Welded, steel-tubing bases keep components and provides dimensional stability
  • Unit is lightweight and portable - heavy-duty castors and leveling pads allow unit to be moved and repositioned with ease
  • Easy to adjust leg sets allow conveyor levels to be raised or lowered to meet different application requirements

Five-level Box-Filling and Storage System
This five-level box filling system fills 4-times as many boxes using half as much floor space as a typical inline system.

Features:
  • The system can be programmed to either signal an operator or shut down the operation when it is full
  • Conveyor height adjustments allow the system to be reconfigured to accommodate different box heights
  • While this system was designed to operate using a cycle count, it could also be designed as a fill by weight system

Box-Filling System with Center Fill Position
This system was designed to service a high volume molding application.

Features:
  • The elevator and the fill position are located in the center of the unit - allowing the unit to access available space on both sides of the molding machine
  • Extra wide belts on the indexing conveyors accommodate twice as many containers as single width conveyors
  • A PLC control system sequences the movement of containers, moving empty boxes into the fill position and filled boxes into storage positions

Multi-Level Carousel System
This multi-level Carousel fill 8 boxes, yet occupies only minimal floor space. Triangular chutes prevent spillage by funneling parts into the boxes on the lower level.

Features:
  • Rack and pinion drive guarantees a precise indexing motion.
  • 3" dia. swivel castors with brakes allow easy mobility and secure positioning
  • The controller allows presets for:
  • Number of parts/cycles in container
  • Number of boxes/bags on platform
  • Alarm settings
  • Programmable delay for feeding conveyor
  • Dry contact closure for upstream equipment when all containers are filled, i.e. during lights out operation

Multi-Level Carousel Bag-Filling System with Pneumatic Chute Diverter
This multi-level bag-filling Carousel uses a pneumatically driven chute to direct parts to the correct level (optional).

How does it work?
  • Parts are fed into the diverting unit which feeds them into bags on the lower level.
  • When all of the lower level bags are filled, the diverter flips to the second position, which diverts the parts to the upper level bags.
  • At a pre-determined point in the cycle (ie. last bag filling, last bag full etc.), the unit will either signal an operator to refill or send a signal to the molding machine to shut down.
