Hytrol’s Zipper is a
wide belt conveyor
fitted with fixed belt
plows for the purpose of
merging cartons from
multiple parallel lines.
The conveyor utilizes a
unique belt type
designed for tracking on
a low length-to-width
ratio. Also, tracking
idlers are angled and
skewed to properly
position the belt on the
pulleys.
The plow structure is
floor supported and
spans the conveyor
width. This structure is
used to support the belt
plows over the conveyor
belt and near the belt
for low profile cartons.
The plow support is
designed to allow
adjustment of exact plow
location.
The conveyor and plows
are direct driven with
shaft mounted gearmotors
and variable speed
drives.
