Stepped Packing Tables - Product Conveying Solutions & Laning Conveyor Systems


Benchmark's Stepped Packing Table consists of a series of belt conveyors of varying widths. Each downstream conveyor is more narrow than the one immediately upstream, which minimizes the distance between the operators and the product. Additionally, the table functions as an economical feeder for precise, continuous motion loading into horizontal wrappers or cartoners. Tabletop chain conveyors can be mounted directly to each side of the conveyors to transport product to downstream equipment, such as a Product Merger. Furthermore, the system automatically starts and stops the horizontal wrapper based on upstream conveyor signals, ensuring seamless integration. The resulting single lane of product can be automatically fed to a horizontal wrapper using our InFlight BL loader.

Our custom automatic infeeds are designed to meet specific product specifications and handle both backlogged and non-backlogged products efficiently. The system is capable of automatic slug loading for thin, consistent-shaped products and offers versatile, reliable tray loading solutions for various tray sizes. With high-speed operation across multiple industries, including baked goods, bars, cookies, crackers, and frozen foods, our comprehensive turnkey distribution systems are equipped with orienting devices for accurate product positioning.
