BBULL SNAKE
Dynamic High Speed Multis-Segment System for Guaranteed Standing Rejection and Sorting
GENERAL INTRODUCTION
BBULL SNAKE is a dynamic high- speed rejection system
for guaranteed standing distribution of containers. The system
can process containers of all conditions, formats and weights.
The movement of the containers as well as the horizontal
displacement happens synchronised with the conveyor speed.
For distribution the system releases single elements from a
permanent moving segmental-chain. The segments stay in
contact with the containers until the final position. The
permanent speed synchronisation is guaranteed by the latest
servo technology.
Minimum maintenance costs, low- noise production and high
speed performances have been considered during construction.
The BBULL SNAKE can be combined with different detection
systems and superior logistic controls.

TECHNICAL PRINCIPLE
When the container to be rejected passes the acknowledge trigger, a number of sorting segments will be released depending on the format. These segments move the container in synchronised speed to the parallel running conveyor belt.
When the container has reached the final position the segments return to their basic position. The segmental chain is equipped with ball bearing to guarantee
a smooth and wearless operation. To synchronise the system with the conveyor the configuration includes an encoder, that provides the signal direct to the servo controller. The encoder signals are also use for tracking the bottle positions.
