The Sidewinder Dynamic Laner



The Sidewinder Dynamic Laner automatically divides a single file lane of containers into multiple lanes without interrupting product flow. Arrowhead Conveyor has eliminated the need to stop product during lane shifts using a unique coiled rail system that provides superior product stability at high speeds.

The Sidewinder is designed for high speed applications. The base unit can handle a continuous flow of product without interruption at line speeds up to 215 feet per minute.

The Sidewinder Provides Superior Container Handling - The unique coiled product guides provide support for both sides of products during lane shifts. This ensures that the product will not topple or drift during the laning process. It also allows the Sidewinder to run difficult containers at the highest possible rates.

The Sidewinder eliminates product flow interruptions caused by clamping and shifting during lane changes.

The Sidewinder is flexible; it can be configured to produce outputs from a single file to multiple lanes up to 22' across. Multiple laning sequences are possible to address individual customer needs. Changeover is fast and effective with no tools required for adjusting the product guides.

The Sidewinder can be provided as a complete unit including product conveyor or it can be provided as a stand-alone unit for retrofit on existing production lines.

The Sidewinder is easy to maintain; incorporating proven, reliable components that are selected for long life and consistent performance.

The continuous, dynamic motion of the Sidewinder eliminates the extra wear and tear caused by conveyor chain slipping under product during clamp and shift lane changes. The servo controls also provide precise motion control that eliminates ongoing adjustments common with other types of actuators.
