The Lateral Chain Feeder Model MFE-150 is designed for continuous feed up to 300 feet per minute of fixed or random length pieces into a moulder. On the feed table, boards are automatically placed along the feed line by perpendicular strands of chains.  A pneumatic system lowers chain carriage between each feed cycle, thus preventing unnecessary friction between the piece being fed and the reserve material.  Boards are automatically driven in sequence by a combination of two powered wheels located under the material and two top pressurized wheels.

The Panel Sequencer Model ESB increases the productivity of Edgebanders, Shapers-Sanders, Tenoners, etc. right from the start. The ESB allows the operator to stage several panels in its bottom feed magazine. Panels are released automatically as soon as the preceding one clears the “no feed zone” on your Edgebander, or fed end-to-end on your Shaper-Sander.

A 3-axis vacuum grip manipulator is paired to handle the panels with care while maintaining a high cycle rate. By its translation vertical and horizontal, the manipulator unstacks the material from the pallet or the stacking zone.

In addition to all these movement actions from one area to another, there is an axis of rotation to orient the material for its next passage through the moulder or sander.

Before feeding, the operator chooses the type of production. Depending on the pattern of production, GANTRYX performs the operation planned at this stage in the sequence.

• Vacuum grip manipulator
• 40” vertical and 120” horizontal translation or stroke or movement
• Rotation from minus 90 to plus 180 degrees
