The MTF Technik Multi-Rounder swivel/rotating distributor consists of a motor-driven chute mounted on a rotating bearing on a frame. Parts placed into the chute above the pivot point slide into containers arranged in a circle around the pivot point. The chute is made of rigid PVC as standard, but can also be manufactured from stainless steel if required.

As a freestanding unit, the rotary distributor is mounted on its own base. This makes the unit very flexible and easy to use at different locations. As an attachment, the distributor is mounted directly below the discharge of a conveyor belt and permanently connected to it. Thus, the feed and distribution are a single unit and can be controlled directly together. Depending on the control system and local conditions, the rotary distributor can complete a full 360° rotation or simply swivel back and forth within a predefined range, moving to different positions. These positions can be set via cams. This allows intermediate positions to be reached in larger containers to avoid spillage cones. The control system uses either a standard controller that can process counting pulses or one that moves to the next filling position after an adjustable time. This control system can also be used to define running, pause, and overrun times for a feed conveyor. If, in addition, operating states – e.g., via signal lights or acoustic detectors – need to be indicated, or if special functions are required, a freely programmable PLC is used. The rotary distributors from MTF Technik ensure reliable distribution to various delivery points, thus noticeably relieving production employees of logistical tasks. The resulting self-sufficiency in production allows for unmanned operation and therefore increases the efficiency of your manufacturing.
