Drum Orientation

Mainly supplied with the 30 ld drum tester for automatically orientating round drums in in a maximum time of 1.5 to 2.0 sec for the full rotation of a 20L drum if necessary. Also available with large drum testers, LDT series with integrated conveyors
This system senses the drum and then stops the conveyor and actuates the orientation system.

The drum is moved at high speed for 90% of the rotation and then ramped down for the last 10% for precise stopping.

The orientated drum is tested at this station and then if it fails it is ejected by our downstream eject system.

The fast and slow speeds can be varied via the menu system

The sensors allow drums with a wide range of colours to be orientated.

We suggest that you send us a sample to check on the ease at which the drum can be rotated.

On a 30ld size tester drums from 140-300 diameter can be orientated.

The same system can be scaled up for drums up to 220l (55 us gal) in size.
