Standard-Knapp servo driven bottle laner

Standard-Knapp product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team
Aug 24, 2006
Standard-Knapp, a worldwide leader in the manufacture of innovative packaging machinery, introduces its advanced bottle laner for balanced, jam-free packing lanes.
Standard-Knapp's bottle laner is engineered to handle a variety of bottles, as well as non-round and unstable containers, making it ideal for packing applications in the food and beverage, household chemical, and personal care industries.
The bottle laner is designed to distribute bottles from a single-file line to multiple lanes, but can also redistribute two lanes into three or more if required.
Powered by a servo drive and timing belt, the bottle laner actuates payout of a specific quantity of containers to the downstream lanes, ensuring the lines remain steadily supplied and balanced.
A smart sensor counts each bottle or container that passes through the bottle laner to determine that each down steam lane receives an equal quantity, guaranteeing line balance and preventing damaging jams.
When stopped, a brake rail, running the length of the laner, provides slight side pressure to ensure bottles and containers remain in the upright position.
The bottle laner can be integrated with a case packer or remain free-standing.
Featuring quick and easy changeover in a matter of minutes by utilising a user-friendly touch screen, Standard-Knapp's bottle laner is a robust and virtually maintenance-free machine.
