Intelligrated, Mason, Ohio, introduced ZoneFlex, a patent-pending flexible zone control for Accuglide and IntelliQ accumulation conveyors.

Designed to optimize product flow of varied package sizes and weights for high-density, zero-pressure accumulation and maximum throughput, this pre-mounted, easy-to-configure system features modules with built-in accumulation and release mode logic to improve material handling efficiency and allow for superior carton control, gentle product handling and increased carton throughput. Clip-in mounting, simple DIP switch configuration and LED diagnostics allow operators to quickly replace, modify and monitor zone controllers. This allows for simple operation, easy maintenance and increased system flexibility.
