Un acumulador vertical proporciona mayor capacidad en una menor superficie. Su tiempo de actividad extendido y almacenamiento eficiente mejoran el rendimiento, la confiabilidad y la flexibilidad de las líneas de producción.
Mire el video para ver cómo el acumulador Helix 40 Tetra Pak® le da una ventaja inteligente con ahorro de espacio.
Nuestro acumulador confiable y eficiente en términos de espacio está diseñado para satisfacer las necesidades de nuestras líneas de envasado de hasta 40 000 p/h. Viene en cinco tamaños diferentes.
First in, first out
Packages always leave the accumulator in the same order they entered, namely the order in which they were produced. The accumulator also preserves the space between each package at all times. This functionality enables full package traceability in the downstream process. In the event of a production issue, affected packages can quickly be identified and removed from the line, leaving compliant packages to continue.
Spiral design
Packages queue up inside the helix – a vertical spiral that is available in different lengths to match line capacity and plant needs. The filling machine determines the accumulator's speed at the infeed, the distribution equipment at the outfeed. This ensures a smooth process when accumulation is activated.
Small footprint
The accumulator’s vertical helix design saves valuable space inside the production plant. It takes up just 10.6 m2 of space (50-metre model). This delivers a very high accumulation rate per square metre.
Spider unit
The spider unit gently distributes packages between the infeed and outfeed conveyors using kinetic energy.
The conveyors dynamically adjust speed to manage flow, the spider ensures smooth handling, prevents damage, maintains correct spacing between packs, and supports a stable accumulation.
Visibility windows
Transparent panels enhance operational visibility, making it easy for operators to monitor the accumulator in real time. Access doors positioned at a convenient height provide easy access for cleaning.
A visibility option is also available, where the entire lower section is transparent, offering significantly improved visibility compared to the standard configuration. Integrated LED lighting inside the accumulator ensures excellent visibility even in low-light conditions, contributing to a safer and more efficient working environment.
Operator interface
The operator panel has an intuitive touch screen interface.
The easy access to essential working parts, large windows through which operators can observe accumulation at first hand, also contributes to the operators' efficiency.
Multi-drive motor
Multiple motors provide better load distribution, reducing strain on both motors and belts while minimising vibrations, ensuring smooth and stable operation.
Integrated dry lubrication system
Integrated dry lubrication system ensures optimal friction level for the internal chain movements, supporting smooth and reliable package transport.
Unlike traditional lubricants, dry lubrication significantly reduces residue build-up, minimising the need for frequent cleaning and contributing to improved hygiene and operational efficiency.
Low or high-pressure cleaning
Cleaning is performed by a spray nozzle system that comes in two options:
Drip pans are included to support improved hygiene and cleanliness. Access doors at a convenient height provide easy access.
Fallen pack sensors
The sensors detect fallen packages, which reduces the risk of jams and ensures smooth operations. This leads to minimising downtime and maintains the flow of production, thereby boosting overall efficiency.
