Filling Devices for Packaging of Cardboard Boxes and KLT Containers

GEFRA offers you various filling devices to supplement the inspection system, for a quantity precise packaging of the sorted parts. 

One type is the filling device using two roller conveyors with a cross slider. One roller conveyor is used to store empty containers, the second stores the filled containers, which are pushed automatically from one roller conveyor to the other by a cross slider.

Roller Conveyors with Cross Slider
A space-saving type is the filling device using roller conveyors and a lifting station. Here the two roller conveyors are arranged one above the other, the lower one for empty containers and the upper one for fully filled boxes or KLT. Here the container is replaced using a lifting station, which transports an empty container to the top of the filling position after the full container has been filled.

Roller Conveyors with Lifting Station
Another type is the filling device with a conveyor belt and roller conveyor. Here the empty KLT or boxes are brought into position by a conveyor belt and, after being filled with the exact number of pieces, pushed onto a roller conveyor where they can be easily taken away.

Conveyor Belt and Roller Conveyor
All filling devices are controlled and operated automatically via the AUTOCONTROL software of the inspection system. If necessary, the relevant data can be transferred to your production data management system. The movements of the containers are monitored by sensors to ensure safe and trouble-free operation, so the inspection system can work independently without an operator. After the exact quantity of items has been filled, the cardboard box or KLT is transported away and stored.
The number of maximum possible containers is determined by the length of the roller conveyors.
To remove the filled containers, the system has a “clearing feature” where the full containers are automatically moved one after the other to the end of the roller conveyor. There they can be easily taken off or stacked on a pallet, for example.
The width and length of the containers can be adjusted, so it is possible to use different container sizes and types.
Integration into an existing packaging system with data exchange is also absolutely possible.
