Diverting and Surge

In temporary buffering or surge control scenarios, product can continue to feed into a lane diverting conveyor or area of a conveyor. This is useful when the main line stops intermittently, when product needs to divert to a workstation for separate actions, or when product delay is needed to prepare downstream operations to receive product.

Production lines with upstream bottlenecks can produce at their capacity uninterrupted while products pause on Mini Mover Rotary Table Accumulators (RTA) equipped with the Stationary Fence Option; surge conveyor systems like this can allow downstream production to catch up. This also helps to reduce costs caused by idle time. In a shipping or similar application an accumulation table would be a great fit for barcoded items that are not scanned correctly and need further attention.

Lite Series conveyors, LP Series conveyors and Transfer-Station (Stationary Fence) equipped Rotary Table Accumulators can be used singly or in combination to meet lane diverting/surge conveyor operational requirements.
