Small Parts Accumulation

Dorner’s Engineered Solutions Group offers custom small parts accumulation and recirculating tables. Designed for lightweight, low friction accumulation, these conveyors are ideal for recirculating small assembly parts in industrial manufacturing applications.

Dorner BiFlo

Benefits of Dorner's BiFlo Accumulators

Dorner’s BiFlo recirculating tables combine two conveyors moving in opposite directions to recirculate product while it waits for the next step in production. Two diverting arms direct product towards the center of the table and can be manually shifted to redirect to an outfeed as needed.

Our BiFlo accumulators help product lines to better keep up with machine outfeed, and improve organization by allowing for simple product singulation. Our team can customize a BiFlo conveyor to meet the needs for just about any small parts accumulation application to help improve product flow and organization during the manufacturing process.

Large Capacity Accumulation

Whether you’re working with unstable or delicate product, our accumulation tables are up to the task! We offer large capacity accumulation tables that are designed for minimal contact and zero pressure accumulation and buffering.

Garvey Infinity™

Benefits of Garvey's Infinity™ Accumulators

Garvey’s Infinity™ line of accumulation tables utilize their patented technology to accumulate and single file product at high speeds to improve efficiency and throughput in the production line. These systems can be implemented for multi-laning, buffering, or unscrambling, all while functioning smoothly even at high speeds.

Most importantly, Garvey’s Infinity™ accumulators are designed to meet the strictest industry regulations for safety and integrity. This includes reduction of areas where foreign materials can collect, minimized no metal-to-metal surfaces to eliminate entrapment, and easy to clean surfaces to meet FDA standards.

Other Benefits:

  • Eliminate backpressure
  • Simple designed for easy maintenance and low operation costs
  • Single file and lane divide functionality
  • Minimal friction and noise

Garvey Bi-Flo™ Accumulators

Garvey also offers their BiFlo™ Accumulation tables, designed for large-capacity applications and can be easily integrated into your production line. By utilizing opposing conveyor movement, these accumulation tables create efficient buffering areas with a small footprint to save on valuable space.

Garvey’s Bi-Flo Accumulators offer a wide range of benefits including:

  • Increased Efficiency
  • Multi-Functional capabilities such as single file or lane divide
  • Minimized maintenance cost
  • Minimal energy use
  • Reduced friction & noise
  • And more!

Benefits of Garvey Infinity™ RX Accumulators & Infinity™ RX Rotary Tables

Garvey’s Infinity™ Rx Accumulator provides high-speed, zero-pressure accumulation designed specifically for the pharmaceutical industry. These systems are ideal for a wide range of product, such as vials, which are prone to instability and damage on typical conveyors. Garvey’s patented technology virtually eliminates all vial damage and ensures a high rate of efficiency in the production line.

Additional Benefits
  • Lower motor count
  • Minimized energy use
  • Maximize line uptime
  • First in first out technology
  • Single file and line divide functionality
  • Best ROI
  • Proven industry results
  • On demand flow divide

Vertical Accumulation

For a space-saving accumulation option that maintains the order of products going in and flowing out, look no further than Dorner’s vertical accumulation solutions.

Dorner FlexMove Helix

Benefits of Dorner's Vertical Helix Accumulators

Dorner’s compact helix conveyors offer a unique, flexible design to provide accumulation and buffering while maintaining a small footprint. Our patented side roller chain reduces corner friction allowing for faster speeds and smooth product handling, and is easily customizable to meet the needs of most applications.

This system includes options for custom infeed and outfeed lengths allowing the conveyor to extend beyond the spiral, reducing the number of conveyors required. Additionally, the infeed and outfeed can be positioned at any height or angle, making it easy to integrated into any system.

Applications

  • Accumulation
  • Buffering
  • Cooling product
  • And more!

Why Choose Us?

Pressureless Loop Technology

Backpressure can also cause damage and collisions. Our patented pressureless loop technology protects your products by eliminating backpressure.

High-Speed Outfeed

On most accumulation systems, all of the lanes run at the same speed. As a result, the products become nested, which means they must be de-nested at the pickoff point. Our accumulation tables feature a patented slowdown lane that de-nests products before they reach the pickoff point, reducing turbulence and also allowing processors to increase their overall line speeds by as much as 300%

Quality & Safety

Our accumulators are designed to meet the strictest industry regulations for safety and integrity. This includes reduction of areas where foreign materials can collect, minimized no metal-to-metal surfaces to eliminate entrapment, and easy to clean surfaces to meet FDA standards.
