  • The Verti-Divert is a vertical sortation unit designed for use within "in-line" X-ray and line diversion solutions. It is developed to divert cleared and uncleared bags to low and high level collector conveyors stationed above one another.
  • The Verti-Divert is rated for 25 bpm and is based on current maximum Level 1 X-ray throughputs, the 25 bpm can be down rated for lower throughput levels.
  • The unit utilises three standard queuing conveyors built from standard components.
  • The three queuing conveyors are mounted within a steel support frame, fixed to the floor.
    Conveyors A & B pivot on bearings mounted to the frame and are moved via a mechanical link mechanism driven by a timing belt connected to a geared motor drive unit. This drive unit is in turn controlled via an inverter unit.
  • The stationary Conveyor 'C' transports baggage away from the Verti-divert.
  • The inverter unit is used to give a smooth controlled motion to conveyors A + B during the pivoting action. It also allows a variance in speed for the motion. The 3 standard queue conveyors run at high speed to give maximum bag travel speed through the unit.
  • Manual controls allow inching movement of conveyors A + B minimising downtime in the event of jams.
    The Verti-Divert Conveyor is guarded with both weld mesh and mild steel plate guarding to suit site conditions.
