“It made our life a whole lot simpler and easier” when speaking about EZGUIDE Adjustable Guiderail
SpanTech’s EZGuide rail system has greatly improved change over times on our bottle filling line. We fill a wide range of bottle sizes and styles. The EZGuide system makes it easier and quicker to adjust between larger and smaller containers. One great feature is the lack of protruding rods from the sides of the conveyors. We are looking at installing this rail system on more filling lines in the near future.
