Other infoThe DAC 2.0 Gondola Buffer is a space-efficient inline gondola buffer that stabilizes upstream and downstream processes for sensitive and unwrapped products. With a compact height of 2.9 m in standard and modular segment lengths of 3m or 4 m, it integrates easily into existing lines, even where space is limited. The modular design offers a big variety of set-ups even with different leg settings. From 1 leg to 8 leg everything is possible. And thats not the limit, because we are able to design the product even for additional customer needs.
The hygienic gondola design without moving parts above excludes any contamination risk. Each gondola is equipped with RFID, ensuring full traceability and true FIFO buffering. An integrated cooling or drying zone can replace or shorten external cooling tunnels.
Product parameters such as speed, cycle rate, or cooling time are managed via recipe control through the HMI ¿ mechanical format parts are not required. The integrated COP station allows fast cleaning during operation. As a result, the DAC 2.0 Gondola Buffer increases overall line efficiency and minimizes product loss.
