The Inter Conveyors Mooncake Transfer Conceptual Design

The concept for our next project had been finalized last month. Its about the transfer of the Mooncake from one moving conveyor to another moving conveyor of the packaging machine. As for testing purposes, we are going to use the Film Seal Machine as the mooncake supply conveyor and the packaging machine would be the Fuji horizontal packaging machine. This is the film seal machine, and this the Fuji.The film seal will be aligned at 90 degree with the Fuji conveyor, which is at the middle of the above picture between sachet auto feeder and Fuji controller.

Anyway, the objective of this project is actually to ensure the supply of the mooncake can automatically loaded into the packaging conveyor resulting in reduction of a few manpower. What more, the cleanliness can be ensured as its fully automatic process.

This is what we plan the process should be. First, one operator load the mooncake on the seal film conveyor. Once the mooncake reach at the auto pusher slider, it will slide and stop just infront of the pneumatic pusher. Since we already add one switch to detect the mooncake presence, thus once the mooncake presence signal is being triggered, then the pneumatic pusher will push down the mooncake. The mooncake then will slide and guided into the packaging moving conveyor where it will be combined with the oxygen absorbber, that later on both will be horizontally packed automatically. This is how this conceptual design would be. The actual will be altered accordingly to the best result obtained later on.
