An automotive manufacturer faced a significant challenge on their production line: they needed to upright and combine two lanes of F-Style Oil Quart Bottles exiting from their trimmer discharge star. Having previously purchased a solution from Morrison, they now sought to upgrade it by removing controls and creating a slave-driven solution for greater efficiency.
To address this challenge, Morrison engineered a custom four-screw system designed to accept two lanes of empty, horizontal 1-quart oil bottles as they exited the trimmer discharge star. The system performed the following operations:
Morrison integrated this system with the customer’s trimmer discharge star on-site, allowing the system to be slave-driven off an output shaft for seamless operation.
The timing screw drive unit was constructed from black anodized aluminum, providing a durable yet lightweight solution. This construction met the specific industry standards required for the automotive sector.
By implementing Morrison’s custom four-screw system, the customer achieved the following benefits:
This innovative solution by Morrison not only overcame the customer’s initial challenge but also significantly enhanced their production line efficiency, proving the value of tailored container handling solutions.
