Gapper PVC Conveyor

A Gapper PVC Conveyor is an essential component in logistics, e-commerce, and parcel sorting systems. It is designed to create precise gaps between parcels, enabling efficient scanning, weighing, sorting, and routing. The conveyor ensures optimal spacing between packages to enhance automation accuracy in high-speed distribution centers.

Key Features at a Glance

High-Performance PVC Belt

Constructed with a durable PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) belt that offers excellent wear resistance, the system is available with either smooth or rough (grip-type) surfaces to prevent parcel slippage and is designed to support high-speed operations without compromising stability.

Adjustable Parcel Gapping

Creates consistent and precise gaps between parcels for scanning, weighing, or diverting, and can be configured through a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) or a Servo Motor Controller. Photoelectric sensors detect incoming parcels to maintain uniform spacing.

Sturdy Frame & Build

Made from Mild Steel (powder-coated) or Stainless Steel to ensure durability and corrosion resistance, featuring a robust frame design that enables vibration-free operation even at high speeds. The conveyor widths are customizable to accommodate different parcel sizes.

Speed & Load Handling

Operates at speeds of up to 160 meters per minute, which can be varied through a combination of conveyor modules, and supports a load capacity of up to 175 kg/m, making it suitable for handling parcels of different weights. This makes it ideal for high-throughput environments such as e-commerce fulfilment centers.

Smart Control System

Integrated PLC-based control panel for easy operation, along with an HMI (Human-Machine Interface) that allows real-time adjustments to speed and gap settings. The system also includes safety features such as emergency stop buttons and overload protection.

Compatibility & Integration

Seamlessly integrates with existing sorting, weighing, and scanning systems, while also working with automated conveyors, sorters, diverters, and warehouse management systems (WMS). Its modular design allows for easy expansion and maintenance.
