Benefits include:

• Cavity separation: Separate conveyor lanes isolate mold cavities - an excellent way to separate family molds.
• Quality control: If one section of the mold fails, only parts from that cavity need to be discarded.
• Extend robot range: Chutes can be used to move parts beyond the normal 'release' range of a robot.
• Increase robot speed: Chutes can increase the speed of a robot by allowing it to release all 4 parts at once - without having to rotate the end-of-arm tooling.

How does it work?

• A robot removes four parts at a time from the mold.
• It positions the parts over the four cut outs and releases them into the chutes
• The parts move through the chutes to the four divided lanes
• The conveyor moves them to the end and fills them into four separate containers
