Piston accumulator Franz Haas HEIP

synchronizationwith integrated controllerintegrated

Overview
The Franz Haas HEIP inline wafer block buffer absorbs jams caused by short production interruptions and temporarily stores wafer blocks for later reintroduction without upstream production loss.

Key benefits

• Saving resources: Keeps valuable product in the process; standard version stacks up to 30 wafer blocks/min, high-capacity up to 45 wafer blocks/min; unstacking performed at a recovery speed of up to +20%.
• Delicate product handling: Gentle handling preserves wafer blocks for subsequent processing.
• Smart buffering: High degree of automation and intuitive operation; intelligent dynamic control software ensures fast reaction times and minimizes product dwelling time.

How it works
Micro-interruptions (e.g. foil ruptures or small malfunctions) can cause block accumulation. The HEIP stacks incoming blocks during interruptions and feeds them back to the line when normal operation resumes, preventing downtime and product loss.

Application possibilities

• Primary application: flat wafers and wafer blocks in confectionery production lines.
