Particularly when order volumes are high, it is often the case that parcels need to be stowed on the conveyor until further processing in order to prevent damage and ensure smooth processes. Wiltsche's infeed conveyors are an economical and simple solution for this.

The infeed conveyors are driven scissor roller conveyors, each equipped with a sensor at the infeed and outfeed ends. These sensors are used to control the parcel flow; when the first parcel reaches the sensor at the receiving end, the driven scissor roller conveyor starts and transports the goods away from the sensor. This process is repeated until the first parcel reaches the sensor at the output end. The conveyor is now fully loaded and no further parcels can be placed on it. Only when the employee removes a parcel at the pick-up end is the rest of the goods conveyed further, creating new space at the pick-up end.

If all packages are to be removed from the conveyor for further processing, the release switch can be used to transport all packages on the scissor roller conveyor towards the pick-up sensor. The infeed conveyors can also be combined with ball roller tables and other scissor roller conveyors so that they can be optimally adapted to the spatial conditions on site.

"With the combination of an infeed conveyor, scissor roller conveyors and ball transfer tables, warehouse processes can be optimized and efficiency increased - while at the same time reducing the damage rate in the warehouse, as the parcels do not collide or fall off the conveyor belt thanks to the intelligent helpers," says Baret Davidian, Managing Partner at Wiltsche. as
