Dorner’s AquaGard GT was designed to prevent bottlenecks in industries such as packaging, bottling, dry food processing, and part handling.
All components (except motors) are either stainless steel or FDA-approved plastics, which are ideal for operating in environments that require wipe-down or occasional washdown cleanings of the conveyor.
Dorner’s AquaGard GT integrates features and benefits such as powered transfer units, flush side tails, and pre-engineered transfer modules, among others that in-house machine builders cannot match. The conveyor is competitively priced and comes with a short 10-day lead time.
At the show, the AquaGard GT will be operating in a fully functional loop with Infinity and Bi-Flow accumulation tables from Garvey. A versatile machine, the Infinity uses Garvey’s patented technology to accumulate and sort unstable products at high speeds into a single or multi-lane configuration. The Bi-Flow uses opposing conveyor movement to create a buffer for product accumulation in a small footprint. The loop also includes Dorner’s FlexMove Helix and Wedge conveyors that allow vertical product movement to maximize a smaller footprint. This demonstration illustrates the seamless integration Dorner and Garvey can bring to industries worldwide to maximize production in accumulation-type applications.
Other Dorner conveyors exhibited will include: the 2700 medium duty, 3200 Series, AquaPruf VBT (vertical belt technology), AquaGard LPZ, AquaGard, and 2200 Series.
For pallet movement Dorner will showcase the Shuttle ERT250 (shown), which uses rollers to move pallet conveyors smoothly with no friction.
Also, Columbus McKinnon will demonstrate its newest acquisition montratec and its intelligent monorail shuttle system that will be expanding in more markets soon.
