2 Stage Prover Loader

The Ferguson prover loader can be designed to suit most makes of prover and can be used for both tin straps and trays.

Operation
The prover loader is plc controlled using invertor on infeed and on pusher, for smoother transfer.
The product is transferred onto an integral infeed conveyer which takes the product up to a stop. This integral infeed conveyer is of open construction to allow an internal lifting deck to be housed. When the row rises to clear the tins from the infeed conveyer, these are now ready to load.

The pusher arm is in the down position ready to push the product into the prover. If the prover is not safe to load the pusher will move the product forward to a safe position until given the signal safe to load, therefore allowing another row of product to enter the loader. Once loaded the pusher arm will lift by pneumatic cylinders and return to load position ready to start process again.

Fully guarded with interlocked sliding doors on front of machine.

Pusher unit moves on linear slides which are driven by ribbed belt,
