A small-gap conveying surface developed around can stability
A spiral accumulation conveyor holding beverage cans in a dense queue between two production stages.
The project
What the line needed, and what NEXUS did.
The requirement
A beverage line required accumulation capacity between production stages. The cans needed to form a dense queue on the spiral while remaining stable as they travelled across the conveying surface.
The engineering response
NEXUS used a specially developed small-gap slat-chain surface. Reducing the discontinuities beneath the can base helped lower the risk of cans tipping during accumulation.
Why this configuration works
The small-gap surface reduces discontinuities beneath the cans, helping the queue remain stable.
