The new “bar turner” has been designed to be installed even on existing lines and in “stand-alone” applications, and because of this is fitted with freestanding electrical cabinet.

The device consists of a stainless steel framework with four feet for integration of Metal Detector belts or curved belts if necessary.

The bar turner consists of:

An initial acceleration belt, driven by an AC motor, including a motorised vertical belt for positioning products precisely at the rotation section infeed

A product “rotation” section, consisting of two parallel belts running at different speeds and driven by two separate AC motors;

An end product alignment section, consisting of a horizontal belt, driven by an AC motor and a vertical motorised belt, that correctly positions the products longitudinally as they come out from the rotation section.

Photocells checking the size of the products in transit, can also be fitted downstream from the latter belt.

A blower rejecting system can be incorporated in order to reject mis-shaped or broken products.

An electrical cabinet including motor speed controls is fitted on the frame.

A perforated vac-belt system can also be fitted (as an optional extra) on the first acceleration conveyor. This includes a vacuum pump which ensures the correct positioning of product when dealing with high arrival speeds prior to the turning unit.
