A pusher arm in an overhead conveyor system is a component designed to move or direct items along the conveyor track. Its primary functions are:
Sorting: The pusher arm can push items from one conveyor line to another, enabling the sorting of products into different categories or destinations. This is particularly useful in systems where items need to be routed to different areas based on size, type, or destination.
Diverting: It helps in diverting items off the main conveyor path. For instance, if items need to be redirected to a packaging area or another processing station, the pusher arm can shift them accordingly.
Spacing: The arm can also be used to space out items on the conveyor, ensuring that they are adequately spaced for further processing, such as inspection or packaging.
Control: By regulating the flow of items, the pusher arm helps in maintaining a smooth and efficient operation within the conveyor system, preventing jams or bottlenecks.
Overall, the pusher arm enhances the flexibility and efficiency of the conveyor system by allowing automated control over the movement and handling of items.
