Abstract
A device for aligning a plurality of products, arriving via at least two non-correlated inlet paths, according to a predeterminable pitch along one outlet path. The device includes a plurality of adjacent conveyor belts, here being as many conveyor belts as there are inlet paths. A corresponding sensor is associated for each of the conveyor belts to determine the arrival of a product on the corresponding conveyor belt. A separate actuator with a corresponding position transducer moves each conveyor belt. A control unit is connected to the actuators, the sensors (F1, F2) and the position transducers. The control unit controls the movement of the conveyor belts such that the products on the outlet path are arranged according to the predeterminable pre-set pitch.
