INDUSTRY COMPONENT

Orientation Wipers/Blades

Precision wipers/blades for product orientation and alignment in automated assembly lines.

Component Specifications

Definition
Orientation wipers/blades are specialized components in orientation track systems that physically guide, align, or wipe products into correct positioning for downstream processes. They ensure consistent product orientation by applying controlled contact to adjust angular or lateral misalignment during high-speed conveyance.
Working Principle
Operates through mechanical contact with products on moving tracks; uses angled surfaces, flexible materials, or spring-loaded mechanisms to gently push, rotate, or stabilize items into predefined orientations without damaging surfaces.
Materials
Typically polyurethane, silicone rubber, or engineered plastics (e.g., UHMW-PE, acetal) for flexibility and wear resistance; metal cores (stainless steel or aluminum) for structural support; food-grade or chemical-resistant coatings as needed.
Technical Parameters
  • Width 10-50 mm
  • Length 50-300 mm
  • Hardness 60-90 Shore A
  • Max Speed 200 products/min
  • Thickness 3-15 mm
  • Operating Temperature -20°C to 80°C
Standards
ISO 9001, DIN 8580

Frequently Asked Questions

How do orientation wipers differ from standard wipers?

Orientation wipers are designed for precise product alignment with controlled flexibility and wear patterns, unlike general-purpose wipers used for cleaning or sealing.

What maintenance is required for orientation wipers?

Regular inspection for wear, tear, or contamination; replacement based on operational hours or product count; lubrication-free in most designs.

Can I contact factories directly?

Yes, each factory profile provides direct contact information.
