Batches of towels and bed linen will be loaded seperatly in the bag system and tunnel. Towels will be full dried and delivered to the towel folders where they are feeded and automatically sorted by size.
Bedlinen will go to the batch separator and/or picker on to a conveyor and is delivered to the operators. Operators will feed pillow cases, sheets and duvets by the VEGA clipping stations. Due to pre-set transport heights in the clipping stations operators are supported in finding the second corner of the item. From the clipping stations items are sorted in to different rails for pillow cases, sheets and duvets. The intelligent control system with customer separation system will assure that customers will stay together and there will
be minimum waiting times between transfers. For example: Customer A Sheets, Customer A duvets, Customer A, pillow cases, Customer B pillow cases, Customer B Duvets, Customer B Sheets, Customer C Sheets, etc.
The TRANSFEED Automatic can process sheets and duvets in single and two lanes depending on the sizes and working width of the TRANSFEED Automatic. Pillow cases can be processed in 4 lanes. After ironing items will come to the VEGAFOLD S where it is possible to sort large pieces in up to 4 different sizes, like;
- Singles
- Doubles
- Kings
- Queens
Behind the VEGAFOLD S a AMD or APMS stacker can stack the pillowcases. In this way customers will all stay together which will improve packing and internal logistics as well.
