Metering Tall Snack Cans

  • Food, Metering
  • Tall Snack Cans

A food manufacturer needed a solution for handling tall, round containers that were prone to tipping on their production line. Our team designed a dual-stacked timing screw drive unit to stabilize these containers with top and bottom contact points, keeping them secure for a downstream check weigher at a 9-inch pitch. The system also adapts to smaller containers with a single screw, meeting strict food industry standards.
