Handling equipment - Box filler | GBF

Gentle, fully automatic box filling

The GBF is a fully automatic box filler that can be used both during storage and during potato processing / grading. The adjustable intake height and the box positioning frame are suitable for filling a variety of different sized boxes. The hydraulically adjustable gooseneck reduces the discharge height into the box. The machine settings operated from the GBT operator terminal including Flow-Control line control to start and stop the complete feeding line.

Benefits

The storage line evolves into an assembled unit

Flow Control connects all machines that belong to one storing line to each other. The entire line can be stopped by each machine without delay or automatically stops itself in case of trouble. The entire storage line can be started at the push of a button in a programmed start-up sequence from any terminal. In order to avoid blockages, the machines start from the final discharge point of the storage line back to the receiving hopper with a programmable time offset. The minimal manual control effort allows the entire line to be operated by a single person, thus reducing the need for additional manpower. In conjunction with the automatic speed control of the hopper floor, called Capacity Control, a uniform crop flow in the entire storing line can be ensured under all conditions.

• Constant low discharge height for a gentle box filling
• Optimum crop flow due to infinitely variable belt speed
• Wavelike belt with flights and adjustable break systems at both ends reduce crop rotation
• Simple positioning of the boxes at the box position frame
• Comfortable operation via operator terminal type GBT 840
