Compact Dual Lane 90° Case and Product Turner by Multi-Conveyor

IMAGE CLARIFICATION: One image in this video incorrectly claims the overall length of this system is five feet (5'). The dual lane product turner itself is five feet (5'). However, there's an additional one foot (1') metering belt that, combined, brings the overall length of this build to six feet (6').

Multi-Conveyor recently built this cost-effective, compact dual-lane 90° case turner to rotate and align single lane filled cases that quickly transfer onto an existing case sealer. The stainless-steel, wash down system is only 6’ long end-to-end.

The belt on the left will run significantly faster than the belt to the right, causing the case to turn. We’ve slowed down the video to capture the rotation process motion. The first single belt is running faster to provide an adequate gap between products to ensure turning without products colliding.

Conversely, we’ve sped up the belt on the left, beyond this applications designated line speed, to show that you are not limited to 90° rotation.

When we dial back the faster belt, the left lane can be adjusted to run at the same speed as the belt to the right when product turns are not required or straight line conveyance is preferred.

This particular system called for a visual alarm horn and beacon stack, along with push button controls for operator interface, E-Stop, Reset, Start and Stop.

Multi-Conveyor has built many dual belt product turner configurations. We typically use Intralox flush grid and friction top grid belting at speeds that are set by trial and error depending on product size and weight. For instance one belt may be at 60 fpm and the other at 40 fpm.
