Stacking Systems
Shingle Delivery Conveyor
- Direct drive (no gearboxes)
- Segmented modular design for gradual acceleration resulting in fewer stacker jambs
- V-Grooved belt rolls with Twin A, poly belting
- UHMW belt stabilizers
- Independently mounted ceramic lined side guides for greater adjustability
Diverter
- Servo Driven
- Light weight (low inertia)
- Responsive
- Low Maintenance
Drop Conveyor
- V-backed rough top belting
- Belts equipped with individual tensioners that are adjustable from outside frame & guards via right angle linear actuator.
- Reversible center drive
Stacker box
- Servo Driven
- Frame provides easy access to components for quick replacement
- Starwheels and drop plates are coupled directly to servo reducers
- No realignment necessary when replacing starwheels due to 3-piece coupling design
- Operational flexibility even with unbalanced stacks allowing square drops
- Production speeds of up to 700 fpm (213 mpm) into a single box depending on shingle design
Accumulation Conveyors
- Belt driven live rollers
- 2-1/2” (64 mm) dia., 11 ga. rollers
- High speed sealed bearings
- Air operated zones
- Typical zone length of 42” (1066 mm)
- 14” wide (355 mm), 3 ply black PVC-120 belting
- Brake section at exit end
Timing Feed Conveyors
- Servo driven entry section
- AC vector driven exit section
- Twin A, poly belting
- UHMW slide supports provide full bundle support
Hi-Lug Conveyor
- Modular frame
- UHMW return rail for lugs
- Slider beds adjustable on two axis
- Pusher lugs feature easily replaceable Crodon faces and bushed attachment holes with larger attachment bolts for easy change
- Slide plates at the entry point are ceramic for consistent and proper friction from a stationary position to speed from the pusher lug
- Slide plates between the entry and exit positions are Crodon for long service life
Advanced Stacking System Jam Detection
- Cutter jam is detected with photo eyes at the exit of cutter
- Diverter jam causes laminator to stop
- Stacker jam causes laminator to slow down and shingles to be redirected to operational stacker
- Hi-Lug jam causes the laminator to slow down until zoned timing conveyors are filled
