Producers of formed products, portioned products (e.g. minced meat) or other separated products (e.g. dough applications) benefit from the efficient product handling with the RB 371 rectracting conveyor. Reliable depositing of the products into primary packaging, such as trays, or transfer to downstream systems, such as frosters, frying lines, deep fryers or other conveyor systems, is facilitated.

The 250 mm wide retracting conveyor with a stroke length of 650 mm is perfectly suited for the reliable depositing of products into primary packaging, such as trays, or for placing products onto downstream systems. The RB 371 fits perfectly into the modular Handtmann transfer system for depositing into tray packaging, and integrated signal interfaces facilitate simple synchronisation for placing products onto downstream systems, such as frosters, frying lines, deep fryers, baking lines or other belt systems.

A wide variety of product depositing patterns are possible, both in the process of tray feeding and depositing into trays as well as in conjunction with downstream systems. The products to be processed can be gently and reliably stacked and shingled.

The RB 371 is integrated in the central and networked Handtmann control system, which ensures perfect synchronisation and simplest operation of the modules. Optionally, it offers the possibility to control the overall line via a 12.1” colour touchscreen display with exclusive Handtmann user interface. The integrated quality monitoring including control of the product lengths and targeted ejection ensures a continuous and economically efficient overall process.
