A beverage manufacturer has installed a Qimarox vertical conveyor in its Irish factory. This Qimarox Prorunner mk5 ensures smooth transport of to higher levels, where the next stage of product processing takes place. The Irish Qimarox partner Noreside Engineering is responsible for the implementation of the project. The result:
Due to increasing demand, the beverage
manufacturer has expanded production capacity, putting pressure on existing processes. This applies in particular to vertical transport from higher levels was done largely manually and with delays in throughput and unsafe situations. What the company needed was a robust

vertical transport system that would seamlessly integrate with its existing conveyors and meet the stringent requirements of food production. To this end, Qimarox has partnered with Noreside Engineering, a Kilkenny-based system integrator with extensive experience in process automation in both the food and pharmaceutical sectors. Noreside provided the local expertise and project management, Qimarox the proven vertical transport technology.
The heart of this system is the Prorunner mk5 from Qimarox. The Prorunner mk5 is a continuous vertical
transport system that offers high throughput and a compact footprint, low energy consumption and low maintenance. The modular design makes integration into the Noreside conveyor system easy, resulting in a smooth and reliable connection between the different levels. Thanks to the modular design, capacity can
easily be scaled up in the future. All components are made of stainless steel and comply with Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group (EHEDG) guidelines.
