Montech AG is a Swiss technology company that specializes in the industrialization and standardization of state-of-the-art, unusual belt conveyors, transfer systems, and innovative aluminum framing systems. With its expertise and experience, it implemented exactly the solution this dry ice producer had been seeking. The solution needed to compensate for the different discharge and working heights of the various machines and be mobile. By simply moving the individual belt conveyors, they can be used where and when they are needed. It was also important to consider how to integrate a possibility for sawing up ice blocks.
Optimized, resource-sparing work process
With a total of five belt conveyors – two TB40s and three TB30s – Montech AG succeeded in transforming manual into automated dry ice production. To do this, an inclined TB30 was placed directly after the dry ice block machine, which eliminates the need for a second belt conveyor or one with a bend. For the saw belt that saws up the ice blocks, the space between the two TB30s positioned next to one other was defined. And mobility was addressed by equipping all five belt conveyors with bases on rollers, which allows them to be repositioned quickly and easily if needed. And even better: The mobile base provides easy access to the processing machine and enables flexible use of the belt conveyors for different processing machines.
