Get in the right lane for product presentation

Midlands-based Cox & Plant has manufactured a conveyor that enables separation of products for easier presentation and packaging.

Cox & Plant’s vibratory Laning system is designed to align products such as bottle tops, cereal and chocolate bars, bread rolls, fish fingers and sliced vegetables.

Commercial director Andy Cox said: “We have worked very closely with food manufacturers to develop the laning system in particular, the UK’s largest processor of seafood. This has resulted in 15 similar systems being installed across Europe.

Effortless

“The conveyor was originally designed as a bespoke laning machine to align fish fingers so they could be directly fed and packed into boxes. We are now seeing an increase in the need for correct handling and effortless arrangement of products to ensure ‘A’ grade products are produced.”

The laning system is supplied with custom-designed alignment sections to suit the product and application. It requires minimum maintenance and surpasses health and safety noise levels operating at less than 58 dB(A).
