Machine Overview

The Turntable manufactured by Technogen Enterprise is a motorized rotary container handling system designed for feeding, receiving, transferring and temporarily accumulating compatible round bottles, jars and vials in industrial packaging lines. It provides an essential interface between filling, capping, labeling, inspection and other machinery where container movement must be coordinated.

The turntable operates through a motor-driven rotating disc fitted with an adjustable container-guiding arrangement. Containers are transferred between the rotating disc and an adjoining conveyor according to the selected infeed or outfeed configuration. The equipment can be incorporated into linear, L-shaped or U-shaped production layouts, depending on the associated conveyor system and plant space.

As an infeed turntable, the unit presents empty containers to the next packaging machine, reducing repeated individual manual feeding. As an outfeed collection turntable, it receives bottles from the preceding machine and holds them temporarily for removal or further handling. The rotating surface can also provide limited accumulation between processing stages, subject to container stability and available disc capacity.

Four disc sizes are specified: 24-inch, 30-inch, 36-inch and 48-inch diameters. The range enables equipment selection according to bottle dimensions, expected accumulation and the required production-line arrangement. Each configuration uses a specified worm gearbox or gear-motor drive and variable frequency drive speed adjustment.

The exposed construction uses AISI 304 stainless steel or aluminium, as applicable. A tool-less adjustable container guide channel facilitates changeovers for compatible round containers without complicated mechanical alterations. The equipment is described as a compact, modular and cGMP-oriented construction suitable for hygienic manufacturing areas.

Technogen Enterprise is a manufacturer, supplier and exporter of packaging line turntables based in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India, serving pharmaceutical, food, beverage, cosmetic and other industrial packaging facilities that require flexible container feeding and collection arrangements.

Operating Principle

The turntable uses a motor-driven rotating disc and adjustable guide channel to feed, redirect or collect containers between manual handling positions and the connected conveyor.

Container Loading or Receipt

Depending on the machine's placement, the operator loads empty containers onto the rotating disc or the unit receives processed containers from a connected conveyor.

Rotary Disc Movement

The motor and worm gearbox rotate the disc at the selected speed. The variable frequency drive enables adjustment according to container movement and the connected packaging machine.

Container Guiding

The adjustable guide channel directs round containers toward the conveyor transfer position or allows incoming containers to circulate within the collection area.

Infeed Transfer

When used before a packaging machine, the guide arrangement channels containers from the disc toward the appropriate infeed conveyor.

Outfeed Collection

When installed after a packaging machine, containers arrive on the disc and accumulate temporarily until they are removed or transferred onward.

Changeover and Layout Adjustment

The container-guiding arrangement is adjusted without tools for suitable bottle or jar sizes. The surrounding conveyors determine whether the line is arranged straight, L-shaped or U-shaped.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of a packaging line turntable?
A turntable feeds or collects compatible containers between machines and provides temporary accumulation in a packaging line.
Which disc diameters are available?
Four configurations are specified with 24-inch, 30-inch, 36-inch and 48-inch discs.
Can a turntable be used at both the beginning and end of a packaging line?
Yes. The appropriate guide and conveyor arrangement allows the unit to serve as an infeed or collection turntable.
Does a turntable keep the entire line running if a machine stops?
It can provide temporary accumulation, but available storage is finite. Continuous operation during a stoppage depends on buffer capacity and line controls.
Can the rotating speed be adjusted?
Yes. Variable frequency drive speed control is described for the turntable range.
Can the turntable handle different bottle sizes?
A tool-less adjustable guide channel supports changeover between compatible round container dimensions.
