Overview
This custom made dispenser was designed to handle large plastic, collapsible food bins that are arranged in a three, four, or five stack pattern. The system will automatically dispense a bin from the bottom of the machine at a rate of one bin per minute and was built to operate twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
While a stack of bins is being dispensed, a fork truck can load a second stack onto the infeed conveyor behind the collecting bin. After one stack has been dispensed, the waiting stack will automatically convey into the magazine. An air operated scissors lift raises and lowers the stack while a pair of retracting clamps holds the stack leaving one bin at the bottom to convey out.
