NBE Automated Bulk Material Handling System
Capable of moving highly fragile products through multiple process operations into bulk storage for temporary holding prior to final packaging, the NBE automated bulk material handling system operates at a process rate of 12,000 lb./hr. Bulk totes of product are nested into a lift carriage and sealed to a discharge hood before being vertically conveyed to a 23-ft. discharge height. The vibratory conveyor moves the product through 2 stages of high-speed image processing and sorting. Then, the finished product is moved into a storage tote using a reverse-tilt fill method. The final takeaway conveyor section includes an integrated, NTEP-certified weigh system.
