Okura Automation has designed and installed an integrated conveying solution for medical diagnostics kits supplier, Randox.

Following investment in new facilities, Randox needed a conveying system that would allow numerous different types and sizes of diagnostic kits to be packed, labelled and then distributed to a two-level cold store.

Okura designed and installed a three-line system using its range of standard Belcon Mini slim profile modular belt conveyors.

With the new system, operators place packed cartons on to a belt conveyor, which feeds to an automatic labelling machine. Products are then fed to a pneumatic vertisort conveyor, which is set for delivery to either the ground or mezzanine level of the cold store.
