Drive concept

To overview
  • Consistent use of single shaft drives (every driven shaft has an own geared motor and, if necessary, an own frequency converter).
  • The conveyor chain of machines of the GEK series is driven twice, and that of machines of the GEL and GE series three times.
  • The chain tension is monitored by sensing the strain acting on the single drives (tensioning of the chain by adjustment of the rear main drive using the automatic chain tensioning programme).
  • Bottle conveyors (infeed, discharge and sorting table) are controlled in dependence on assortment and capacity in order to ensure constant behaviour in particular on the sorting table.
