Biscuit & Cracker Delivery Equipment
Make Your Sandwiching Machine Even More Productive
Delivery Equipment Includes
Vibratory Conveyor
Product Description
The Peters Vibrating Feeders are dynamically balanced vibrating systems that consist of a trough and electromagnetic drive. Output is programmed with speeds to match machine output. Accomodates rounds, squares, rectangles, and special shapes.
Key Features
- Stainless steel troughs are driven by a magnet and armature connected to the base housing.
- Available in saw tooth design or half-round pans.
- Manufactured specifically to feed our sandwiching solutions efficiently and minimize breakage.
Row Combiner
Product Description
The Peters QS2 Row Combiner is designed to continuously join two rows of biscuit or cracker sandwiches from a PT2 sandwiching machine into a single 2-high stack of sandwiches and deliver them directly into the infeed section of a horizontal wrapper.
Key Features
- A Servo-driven system provides for simple maintenance access and a sanitary fall-through design.
- Easy change-over design with simple adjustments on the side of the machine.
- Sanitary design with stainless steel and aluminum construction — no painted surfaces are in the product zone.
- Easily accessible top converging lid assembly allows for ease in cleaning and adjustments.
- Unit is mechanically timed with the sandwiching machine for accuracy in product transfers.
- Design available for 1 and 2 lane sandwiching machines.
- Combining speeds up to 800 sandwiches per minute per lane.
- Can handle a variety of base cake shapes, including round, square, rectangle or specialty shapes.
- Standard product size range of 38 mm – 60 mm.
- Products over 60 mm can be produced with optional changes to the standard machine.
- Can accommodate larger products up to 100 mm.
Slug Loader
Product Description
The Peters SPL-S is an automatic Servo Driven Slug Loader which, when connected inline to a Peters 2-lane or 4-lane sandwiching machine, counts finished sandwiches into groups/slugs and delivers them to a conveyor for packaging.
Key Features
- 2-lane or 4-lane servo configuration to meet production requirements.
- Flexible to discharge either single or double drop slugs, with 4-10 counts on double drop sandwiches per slug and 11-22 counts on single drop sandwiches per slug.
- Dependent on slug size, the maximum speed is 40 placements per minute or 800 sandwiches per lane (whichever comes first).
- Can handle a variety of base cake shapes, including round, square, rectangle or specialty shapes.
- Standard product size range of 38 mm-60 mm.
- Design is recipe-driven. During count change over, the operator selects the required recipe with no change parts.
- Finished sandwich slugs are “timed” and precisely placed into conveyors for packaging.
- Positive counting mechanism delivers accurate slug counts – slugs are not measured.
- Electronically timed with the sandwiching machine to ensure precise timing for loading and delivery of sandwiches.
- Design ensures gentle handling of finished sandwiches. It incorporates specially designed pushers and retainers to handle slug of cookies on the bottom rails.
- Fully automatic design reduces labor cost, scrap, and human error, and increases throughput.
Tray Loader
Product Description
The Peters TL is an automatic Tray Loader which, when connected in-line to a Peters 2-lane or 4-lane sandwiching machine, counts finished sandwiches into groups, loads them into trays and delivers the trays to a conveyor for packaging.
Key Features
- 2-lane or 4-lane configuration to suit production requirements.
- Flexible: can load either single or multiple cell trays, with up to 23 sandwiches per slug.
- Speeds dependent on slug size; maximum speed is 50 placements per minute or 800 sandwiches per lane (whichever comes first).
- Can handle most base cake shapes, including round, square, or rectangle including a wide variety of specialty shapes.
- Standard product size range of 38 mm – 60 mm.
- Sanitary design with stainless steel and aluminum construction – no painted surfaces in the product zone.
- Driven by the sandwiching machine to ensure accuracy and precise timing for loading and delivery of sandwiches.
- Finished sandwich slugs are “timed” and precisely placed into trays.
- Automatic handling through the sandwiching machine and tray loader eliminates the need for a cooling tunnel and manual counting and transferring of finished sandwiches into trays.
- Reduced slug pressure ensures gentle handling of finished sandwiches through the tray-loading process.
- Fully automatic: reduces labor cost, scrap, and human error, and increases throughput.
Side Diverter
Product Description
Increase output with a Side Diverter that diverts finished sandwiches for further processing or alternative packaging. The latest SD2 diverts finished sandwiches 90° from the actual flow of the sandwiches onto a take-away conveyor.
Key Features
- When the SD2 is attached to the PT, it is mechanically and electrically linked at all times.
- As long as the SD2 is in operation, it will be driven by an attached PT motor.
- The side diverter can also be attached to a cooling tunnel for cooling purposes.
