Encapsulated transport of plastic parts

Details MTF Technik Hardy Schürfeld GmbH & Co. KG

Task: Transport of sensitive plastic parts from production to packaging

Sensitive plastic parts (automotive) are to be conveyed from an injection molding machine to the final packaging using an angled conveyor belt

Start-up and reject parts should be ejected separately

The parts must not be damaged or contaminated during transport

No parts should fall to the floor

The setup of all required components must be reproducible (high standardization in production, avoidance of setup errors)

Solution: Material distribution with encapsulated angle conveyor belt and wide enclosed devices

A 2-way drop-out switch for installation directly under the injection molding machine tool with a fully encapsulated discharge chute

Plastic cascades are mounted inside the switch to reduce the falling speed of the parts

The switch flap inside the switch is made of plastic in order to achieve minimal gaps between the flap and the switch body

L-shaped angle conveyor belt type NL-LD 120 in a completely encapsulated design (belt cover above made of PET, belt cover below the belt made of anodized aluminum) for transporting the parts into a separation drum

Belt with longitudinal bars, funnel with special sealing lips to prevent parts from jamming

A stainless steel drawer is mounted under the flat belt area to collect any parts that may be adhering to the belt due to static charge

Completely closed rear wall of the angle conveyor belt

Perforated drum type 305 B made of stainless steel with plug-in cover made of PET (not mounted in the photo)

Outlet taper below the separating drum with flexible PU strips for parts routing into the customer container

The components are bolted together using adjustable diagonal braces. The entire unit is also firmly connected to the injection molding machine.
