The 2-way reject chute with rotary shaft and pneumatic actuation is used wherever small or beltred parts need to be diverted.

In this rotary shaft mechanism, patented by MTF Technik, a closed system of side walls and a switching flap rotates within a housing. This eliminates any gaps between the switching flap and the side walls where small parts could become jammed. Likewise, there is no relative movement between the two elements, thus preventing abrasion.

The switching speed between the end positions is between 1.0 and 1.5 seconds with this type of drive. Thus, this diverter is particularly suitable for the targeted distribution of part flows or as a quality diverter. Like all MTF Technik diverters, this type is completely custom-designed and engineered. It can be integrated into all standard injection molding machines or die-casting machines. For this purpose, the hopper, the connections to the machine frame, and the geometry of the discharge chutes are adapted to the specific application. Furthermore, this diverter can also be mounted at the discharge of conveyor belts or other feeding devices. Depending on the product range, the rotary chute, the hopper, and the discharge chutes can be manufactured from structured stainless steel sheets to prevent part adhesion, among other things. Special non-stick coatings can also be applied if required. Likewise, the drop chutes can be fitted with transparent covers, inspection hatches, etc., according to customer specifications. In addition to the geometric adaptation, the electrical interface is also designed according to customer requirements. The switch is designed accordingly, depending on which interfaces and signals the production machine or existing control system has.
