Singulator

Employing Activated Roller Belt™ (ARB™) technology, Intralox’s ARB Singulator moves a group of side-by-side products into edge-aligned single file for downstream processes. This extremely reliable singulation system reduces product jams and sorting errors due to side-by-side items. The ARB Singulator is also a component of the depalletizing system.

Benefits of ARB Singulators:

• All the benefits of patented ARB technology
• Eliminates labor costs associated with monitoring and correcting side-by-sides
• Singulate product in a smaller footprint (typically 18 ft.–36 ft. / 5.5 m–11 m) than other singulation systems
• Singulate a wide variety of package sizes (as small as 4 in. x 4 in. [100 mm x 100 mm] with no maximum) and types (corrugated, shrink-wrapped, litho-packs, flats, and more)
• Reduces product damage—no guard rails or plows, and no product tumbling
• Provides continuous singulation without frequent conveyor stops/starts

Ideal solution for...

• Ensuring high singulation accuracy rates (90%)
• Eliminating labor dedicated to correcting side-by-sides
• Reducing high rates of mis-sorts or recirculation due to side-by-sides
• Achieving singulation of products in limited floor space
• Handling a broad product range
• Applications:
  • Singulating cases within a Pallet Layer Descrambler 
  • Unscrambling items after bulk receiving
  • Descrambling packaged food items after a spiral freezer discharge
  • Singulating cases prior to palletizing, merging, sorting, scanning, and labeling
  • Unscrambling side-by-side cartons from accumulation areas or uncontrolled merges
  • Separating items in manual postal or parcel applications
