Metering Gatorade Bottles

Customer Container Handling Challenge 

A beverage manufacturer needed a solution to meter containers before their Silgan & Filtec inspection systems at a high speed of 800 containers per minute.

Morrison Solution 

Morrison developed an AC-driven timing screw metering system that handled the containers positively and discharged them with consistent spacing. The solution featured no-tool quick-change timing screws, dynamically balanced with an interpolated root diameter design, allowing for seamless adjustments when changing containers and screws.

Construction 

The timing screw drive unit was constructed with Black Anodized Aluminum.

Results

The system metered 800 containers per minute, providing consistent spacing and precise handling for smooth inspection. The no-tool quick-change feature minimized downtime, while Black Anodized Aluminum construction provided durability. The beverage manufacturer achieved improved efficiency and reliability, meeting high-speed production needs.
