Re-Flow Accumulation Conveyor
Accumulation Conveyor for Optimum Product Throughput
Nercon’s Re-Flow accumulation conveyor allows for smooth in-line product accumulation during downstream downtime events or changeovers.
Compact, efficient accumulation that keeps products flowing—even during line backups.
Smart Product Flow with Recirculating Conveyors
Utilizing a small footprint compared to the large storage capacity, the recirculating conveyor has the ability to accumulate and single file products, controlling product flow to the next manufacturing process. The ability to recirculate products during a downstream pause or backup is critical to overall production efficiency. Positioning Nercon’s re-flow accumulation table in key locations on a production line creates a consistent product flow ensuring optimum product throughput.
Keep Products Moving, Even During Backups
Configurable for a variety of product sizes and materials, the unique single filing concept of the recirculating accumulator ensures smooth combining of containers both round and irregular shaped. Two conveyor belts move in opposite flow directions creating a buffer zone in a small footprint. The recirculating design relieves back pressure in the combining area, and aids in overall accumulation pressure relief. Products begin to recirculate on the conveyor table and accumulate during a downstream backup. Upstream equipment continues running as containers are continuously being fed into the accumulation area maintaining a steady upstream production flow.

Re-flow with side transfer infeed. Product flow direction at infeed the opposite of the discharge.
Re-flow with side transfer infeed. Product flow direction at infeed the same as the discharge.
Key FeaturesHandling Irregular-Shaped Products with Ease
The re-flow accumulation table is uniquely designed to manage irregular-shaped items. This design ensures accurate orientation and consistent flow—even for difficult product shapes.
Key features include:
Angled rails that guide the product’s long axis in the direction of travel
Rotating post to align products to the correct orientation
Single filing area sized to allow only the short axis to pass through
Offset pressure relief design that ensures smooth discharge of a single product row
Products that can’t immediately single file are redirected to the return flow and recirculated until ready
Seamless Integration for Your Line
Nercon works closely with manufacturers to design accumulation solutions that fit:
-
Product size, shape, material, and weight
