DSU Diverter Sorting Unit

Product Discharge

Description

W&H’s DSU Diverter Sorting Unit utilizes pivot arm diveters to deflect cartons across the conveyor belt. The high belt speed gives the cartons a high kinetic energy and the air driven diverters move their arms 45° across the belt. As a result, the cartons undergo a directional change and are turned into their proper discharge.destination lane. This offloading is extremely gentle since the product is positioned close to the contact surface of the diverter arm. The DSU sorting speed is up to 380 feet per minute. It is capable of sorting up to 3,600 units per hour based on 24" long items. It can handle products with dimensions from a minimum 9" x 9" x 6" to a maximum 42" x 30" x 36" and ranging from 2 to 70 lbs. Several main-line sorting belts with individual drives can be linked in series, resulting in any number of desired diverts. The sorter can be configured for single sided diverting to eityher the left or right side or for dual sided diverting with staggered takeaways. Product must be aligned to the divert arm side. Minimum 66" divert centers. An optional air feature enables bags or light products to be handled.
