High-speed sliding systems for beverage lines

Streamline your high-speed production lines with advanced sliding systems designed to efficiently divert, divide, or combine products, ensuring seamless product flow and alignment without altering line speeds.

The S Series, M Series, and H Series from Antares Vision Group are sophisticated sliding slat systems engineered for seamless product management in high-speed packaging lines. Designed to divert, divide, and combine products across multiple lanes, these systems effectively handle a range of products including bottled water, soft drinks, and canned food. What sets these systems apart is their fully configurable design, allowing integration into existing production lines with ease. Capable of managing products from various upstream lanes and aligning them downstream, they ensure efficient workflow, even with unstable items.

These systems excel in operations like equalization, preparing products for downstream processes such as pasteurization or secondary packaging, with a linear speed of up to 80 m/min and a weight range of up to 30,000 g. Automation is enhanced with an Industry 4.0-compliant interface, supporting bidirectional protocols for seamless integration and remote monitoring. Constructed with high-quality materials, the systems promise durability and low maintenance, meeting CE, MID, BRC, IFS, HACCP, and GMP standards. Available in models with varying widths, these systems are ideal for beverage producers, food manufacturers, and packaging companies looking to optimize production efficiency without compromising product integrity.
