Application Examples
Cooling units can be configured to fit almost any conveying application, including automated box filling units. Cooling units such as these, fitted onto the infeed
conveyor of a box filling application, maximize the savings from automated systems by allowing cycle times to
be reduced as much as possible. Features on this application include:
- Finned heat exchanger
- Process water hook ups - for tower water or portable chiller, water supplies
- Variable speed blower fan
- Side entry chute - for hot parts coming from an under press chute
- Total enclosure - keeps cool air around parts; forces hot air out the ends
- Variable speed conveyor belt - allows you to control how long parts are in the chilled air environment
- Condensation drip tube
A chilled air cooling conveyor such as this is an excellent, cost effective choice for shops that use a large number of cooling conveyors.
Chilled air from a central chiller is blown into enclosed channels which double as side rails. Perforations allow the air to flow into a Lexan™ enclosed
cooling chamber. The system could also be used with ambient air if less cooling is desired.
