Product Overview

The Baggage Centering Unit is designed to center and reposition bags laterally before entering EDS machines, ICS top loaders, and other downstream equipment. Precise lateral alignment is critical: when bags are off-center, EDS machines scan sub-optimally, and ICS top loaders may mis-load bags — causing jams or misrouting.

The centering unit uses a combination of conveyor belt geometry and sensor-triggered guides to reliably center bags of all shapes and sizes. It can be combined with singulators and edge-guiding devices to ensure consistent alignment throughout the induction line, with no gaps in coverage — making it an essential component of any high-performance BHS induction line.

Key Features


  • Centers bags laterally before EDS Machines and ICS Top Loaders

  • Works with edge guiding devices for complete blind-spot coverage

  • Photoelectric sensor-triggered automatic centering mechanism

  • Compact design for easy inline installation in existing lines

  • Handles bags of varying sizes, weights, and rigidity

  • Eliminates misalignment issues that cause jams and misreads

  • Compatible with all standard BHS conveyor widths

  • Can be combined with Singulator for full pre-EDS preparation

  • PLC-controlled for integration with BHS automation systems

  • Low maintenance — no wear items require frequent replacemen
