The Ever Versatile Gap Transfer

New England Machinery has one machine that has numerous uses. We call it our NEDP, Gap Transfer. This one machine has been seen over the years by thousands of visitors to our booths at trade shows. We use it at the shows to launch our famous ‘flying yellow bottles’. But in reality it is our most versatile machine that has numerous practical uses in a production facility.

In its most simplest use, the NEDP is a gap transfer. It will take empty or filled containers from one conveyor to another. It can be used to hold and transfer containers for bottom coding, it can be used to side transfer containers, it will assist unstable containers to pass over a dead plate, it can be used to depuck containers or elevating or lowering containers. The NEDP can be mounted onto the customer’s existing conveyor, or on its own stainless steel stand, it can be cantilevered over a conveyor. One machine – multiple uses. Versatility at its finest!

  1. Marge, the Gap Transfer machinery sounds really interesting. My cousin worked in a factory last summer. I wonder if he ever worked with anything like the Gap Transfer. He told me that they used conveyors a lot. Do you know what companies use to keep their conveyors running so smoothly for so long? http://mightylube.com/conveyor-lubricants/
