Mesh Ball (MBC) Rotator Conveyor

The Innoveyance Mesh Ball Rotator Conveyor turns corrugated bundles in place — 90° or as required — so they reach the next station correctly oriented. Built on the same mesh-and-ball deck as our bundle conveyors, it rotates product on the fly without stopping the line.

Rotate bundles without breaking flow

Correct bundle orientation is critical for clean stacking and pallet patterns. The rotator indexes bundles to the required angle as they pass, eliminating the manual turning that slows lines and risks product damage. The ball deck lets bundles pivot smoothly while the mesh belt maintains forward control.

Part of a complete bundle-handling line

The rotator drops into High Speed Bundle Systems and ball-belt repositioning lines alongside Innoveyance bundle conveyors, centering devices, and ejection systems to deliver square, correctly oriented loads to palletizing.

Durable, US-engineered construction

Steel mesh, embedded transfer balls, and heavy frames handle continuous corrugated duty. Every system is engineered, built, and supported in the United States, so lead times, customization, and service stay close to your plant — not an ocean away.

Category: Conveyor Systems

The Mesh Ball Rotator Conveyor features all-welded, precision laser-cut and formed steel-frame construction and requires no field adjustment — units are fully assembled and tested before shipment. It rotates unit loads, stacks for cross-corrugation, or zero-trim applications in a modern box plant, and can rotate multiple stacks simultaneously without disrupting stack integrity.

Features

Less Sheet Walk: Increased load stability reduces bottom-sheet damage for better load quality into finishing machines.
Reversible Center Drive: Allows recirculation of loads.
Low Maintenance: Maintenance-free, grease-packed drivetrain; no air requirements; low rolling-ball friction reduces belt friction and horsepower; simple, low-maintenance ball-belt.
Safety: Radius corners; belt has a closed surface with a fully flush edge.
Adjustable Height: Top-of-belt height adjusts from 12ʺ to 15ʺ to fit existing production lines.
Homogeneous Product: Common components reduce the spare-parts list.
Variable Frequency Drive: Variable speeds for any application.
Modular Design: Optional on-board drives make the device self-contained.
Licensing: Produced and sold under license from Alliance Machine Systems International, U.S. Patent No. 7,857,118.

FAQs

Q: What is a rotating conveyor used for?

A: A rotating (rotator) conveyor turns product in place to the correct orientation before the next operation — for example, squaring corrugated bundles for clean stacking and pallet patterns without stopping the line.

Q: How does the Mesh Ball Rotator turn bundles?

A: Embedded transfer balls let the bundle pivot while a powered mesh belt keeps it under forward control, indexing each bundle to the required angle as it passes.

Q: Is the rotator made in the USA?

A: Yes. Innoveyance engineers, manufactures, and services the Mesh Ball Rotator Conveyor in the United States.
