Automatic Gaylord Filling System

Description

Gaylords are loaded onto the lower, live roller conveyor by a forklift. The conveyor moves the gaylords into the fill position. A photo-eye senses the gaylord is in the correct position. Parts are conveyed on the top, belt conveyor which fills them into the gaylord. When the gaylord is full, the top conveyor momentarily stops. The full gaylord moves away and a new empty gaylord indexes into the fill position.
