Layout Engineering and Design

05/21/2008 2:57 AM

Dear all hello! How can i determine the conveyor lenght in packaginl lines? We produce filling machines for every non carbonated liquid (food and non food) and I have to project packaging plants, from bottle formers to palletizer. I know the speed of the machines, the sizes of the bottles, the number of bottles inside the machine during operation and the stop time we want to manage.

How do I determine the conveyor characteristics?

Thank you really much for your help

Best regards and have a good day!

V79,

The information you have is a good start.

If I understand what your asking. You keep breaking down each process.

For instance;

Next, You'll have to determined what type and size of staging area to feed the machines.

e.i. sorting, and positioning the packages. (assuming its bottles ). Is the bottles coming bulk, you have position the bottle, and to sort it so that it is coming single file.

Their are a few ways on doing this.

I may be able to help more, could use more info.
