LEWCO Dual-Lane Poly-V Parcel Sort System
LEWCO recently provided an integrator with eight identical units from our LEWCO RED line which is specifically designed for the Retail E-commerce Distribution industries.
These units are part of an automated hub for a popular parcel handling service where packages are routed through a complex system of conveyors resembling a maze of belts. To assist in the Primary Sort system, LEWCO was tasked with designing a unit that would transfer standard packages of various shapes and sizes.
The Poly V-belt Driven Roller Conveyor, or PLV25 provides a positively driven live roller conveyor. This version consists of two side by side 44 inch wide lanes, creating a dual lane with a 91-1/2 inch overall effective width. The 2-1/2 inch diameter rollers are spaced on 2-3/4 inch roller centers and runs at 270 FPM incorporating 24 inch high guardrail on both sides preventing packages from falling off.
This unit is located just after the Singulator and is used to return packages into the recirculation system. By incorporating these units, the customer has reduced manual material handling and improved product flow.
LEWCO offers a quality product that is cost effective and built to the highest industry standards. Reduction in manual material handling, improved product flow, better ergonomics and elimination of shipping damage are just some of the benefits of a well-designed LEWCO conveyor system.
