Hytrol’s Zipper is a wide belt conveyor fitted
with fixed belt plows for the purpose of merging cartons
from multiple parallel lines. The conveyor utilizes a
unique belt type designed for tracking on a low length-to-width
ratio. Also, tracking idlers are angled and skewed to
properly position the belt on the pulleys.
The plow structure is floor supported and spans the
conveyor width. This structure is used to support the
belt plows over the conveyor belt and near the belt
for low profile cartons. The plow support is designed
to allow adjustment of exact plow location.
The conveyor and plows are direct driven with shaft
mounted gearmotors and variable speed drives.
