  • Container treatment plants are, for example, rinsers, fillers, cappers but also labeling machines. These can be circumferential design or linear design.
  • Continuous-design container treatment systems have a transport star on which the containers are guided past a circular path, for example past labeling devices. Prior to labeling, the containers can be aligned with recognition features, so that each label can be applied to the container in the same orientation.
  • the containers After the containers have been treated in the container treatment plant, they can be fed to a packaging machine.

  • This compartment is usually formed from a cardboard or cardboard, and is unfolded before insertion into the subsequent container, wherein an insertion station, which can be exemplified as a bridge inserter or compartment inserter, is used. But it is also possible to use a plurality of containers in receiving boxes, wherein the separating elements, so the webs or compartments quasi form honeycomb within the carton, in which the containers are arranged.

  • From the EP 2 500 296 A1 is an apparatus and method for grouping piece goods along a conveyor line.
  • the one-piece elements are individually controllable in their feed movement and / or speed because of the gearless direct drives used along the movement path.
  • the one-piece elements emerge from below the movement path, divert a number of containers from the container flow, initially hold the container flow, thus creating a gap to the separated containers: the divider elements then accelerate and submerge again below the level of the movement path.

So the Aufstandszu motherboard is held securely in position, for example, at four corners or corners. However, it is preferred if the Aufstandszu motherboard is held either on the front end seen in the transport direction or at the rear end of the gripping means. This is possible because the patch cut, in principle, has a certain stability.

  • a particular advantage is that the documents taken on the transport to be handed over to the container need not be placed flat on the conveyor belt immediately after removal from the magazine, but may remain in dense, possibly diversified formation, so that the supply of the Transport way acts as a kind of storage or intermediate buffer line. Any necessary spacing, the last last mover (slide with gripper) then accomplish by appropriate acceleration.
