LENGTH - Optional 10 ft. long bed section available with 40 in. bed segments. Note: As cartons pass from the infeed belt to the higher speed discharge belt, a gap is created between cartons according to the following formula: FORMULA Length of Box + Final Gap --------------------------- = Speed Gap Ratio (SGR) Length of Box + Initial Gap Gaps are then measured and speed altered during release of cartons to create desired final gap or pitch. This process is required at each transition where there is a speed change. Discharge Belt Speed SGR = ------------------------------- Infeed Belt Speed
