Zebra® Automatic Inductor
The Mantissa Zebra® Automatic Inductor can be used to singulate and accelerate product
for induction onto the sorter. Each automatic inductor has two or more belts, which
synchronize the product speed with the sorter speed and an “induction” stage to
induct the product onto the tilt tray sorter
Mechanical features of the new Zebra inductor include self-tensioning strip belts
in the induction stage, which prolongs the life of the belts. The quick-change
belt feature allows any inductor belt to be changed and re-tensioned in less than
five minutes.
Each automatic inductor stage is powered by a 1 HP AC inverter/motor combination
drive. Each drive controls both acceleration and deceleration for that section.
The inductor is part of our machine control profi-bus network, which allows the
status to be displayed in Destination™. A beacon is used to indicate machine status.
The Zebra Inductor also includes an energy efficient sleep mode.
The automatic inductor can be equipped with a scale for weighing product, a scanner
for bar code identification or a cubing unit to record data as it is being inducted
onto the tilt-tray sorter.
