Transfer role in Mexico

Lindal Group established in 1959 continues to innovate for the design of over 2 billion aerosols per year from clean room produced asthma inhalers to silicone dispensing systems and premium deodorant actuators.

Each moulding machine has an under press reversing reject belt conveyor to operate via the machine SPC control to ensure only good product is transported via swan neck belt conveyors to high level conveyors to minimise floor area occupied then through a fire wall to assembly / filling lines with over capacity storage facility subject to high level detectors.

Should the reject parameter from the SPC  be energised the under press conveyors reverse transporting potential rejects to a holding bin ensuring only good product is transferred to the GIMA assembly machines.

Total versatility of operation is provided for all products from injection moulding machines to be transferred to the fully automatic assembly and packaging machines without any manual involvement. This is achieved by the incorporation of multi way diverters which were based on the special conveyor design developed by UPM that resulted in a Queens Award for Innovation.

Due to the tight time schedule UPM organised air freight of all equipment to Lindal Group in Mexico and UPM engineers completed the installation before the required operational deadline to the total satisfaction of both Lindal Group and Unilever.
