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
5 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. |
