SmartPace Dynamic Pacing Conveyor
Dorner’s SmartPace Dynamic Pacing Conveyor is a pacing conveyor that takes randomly spaced items and places them evenly spaced. It is a completely non-contact system that doesn’t use guides, plows or diverts. SmartPace uses HMI interface to control the spacing, speed and orientation of products. It is capable of creating evenly spaced products or alternating groups of products. It can also merge multiple lines without product stops or gates. The entire process is very smooth and seamless.
How the SmartPace Conveyor Works:
- Randomly spaced product enter the conveyor
- A photoeye detects product spacing and,
- A servo motor automatically varies the conveyor speed and placement to create an evenly spaced products
