The SlipFeed system is our low pressure automatic accumulator feeder. It is perfect for trayed products, punnets, boxes and products which can withstand light contact. Accumulation is achieved by monitoring the product as it flows onto either a belted, plastic link, metal link, or a slip-torque "pressure less" conveyor, depending on the specific application and product. Mechanically integrated into any flow-wrapper it takes the place of the conventional infeed section and makes an excellent automation package.

Sophisticated electronics and software developed for us by one of Europe's leaders in positional control systems assures each system caters for a range of products with minimal set-up and fixed sensor positions. It accepts random product flow directly from the upstream process or it can be used to ease the constraints of manual feeding at speed. An economy version which handles four different product sizes coupled to the 550 series flow-wrapper forms a complete automated system at a lower cost than many manually fed flow-wrappers. When integrated into the 750 series it shares the same control platform and is set-up and controlled directly from the flow-wrapper touch sensitive display.
