Taylor Made - Twin Lane Denester

• Separating and dispensing trays or containers onto a conveyor line in food production.
• Automating the presentation of packaging for products such as ready meals, baked goods, or fresh produce.
• Integrating into high-speed packaging lines to improve efficiency and reduce manual labour.
• Handling various tray materials including plastic, foil, and pulp, depending on the specific unit's design.

Typical capacity

Typically, units of this class can handle several hundred to over a thousand trays per minute, depending on tray size and line speed.

Power supply

Commonly requires a 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz, with specific amperage requirements varying by model.

Construction material

For food processing applications, units are predominantly constructed from food-grade stainless steel for hygiene and durability.

Denesting mechanism

Often employs vacuum cups or mechanical grippers for precise separation and placement of trays.

Tray size range

Typically adjustable to accommodate a range of tray dimensions; buyers should confirm specific unit capabilities with the seller.

Footprint

For a twin-lane unit, the footprint can vary, but typically requires a linear space of 1.5m to 3m in length, plus access for maintenance.

Control system

Commonly features a PLC-based control system with a HMI for operational adjustments and fault diagnostics.

• What types of trays can a twin lane denester handle?

  A twin lane denester is typically designed to handle a variety of pre-formed trays made from materials such as plastic, aluminium foil, or pulp. Compatibility depends on the specific tooling and denesting mechanism of the unit.

• Is this unit suitable for different tray sizes?

• What maintenance is typically required for a denester?

• Can this denester be integrated into an existing packaging line?

• What are the benefits of a twin lane denester over a single lane unit?

Buyers typically value conveyor systems for their reliability and longevity when well-maintained. Key considerations when purchasing used units include belt condition, motor functionality, frame integrity, and available spare parts. Industry sentiment emphasises the importance of verifying operational history and cleanliness standards, particularly for food handling applications. Common strengths include robust construction, relatively straightforward maintenance requirements, and cost savings versus new equipment. Reputable manufacturers' models tend to hold their value well and integrate readily into existing production lines.
