Air Conveyors from Lone Star Automated
Air conveyor systems convey PET bottles with momentum from air jets in a stainless steel deck. In addition to providing transportation, the system provides accumulation without product jamming or damage. By storing the product, the air system allows process machines to operate independently. Sequencing damper system allows for the world's only two-pressure air conveyance system.
