German term

Weiche, Weichenband

German to English Tech/Engineering Engineering: Industrial Conveyor systems, feeder devices
I am aware that there are already several similar KudoZ queries, but I didn't find a context that seemed to match exactly. "Weichenband" may be "switcher belt", but I am still not 100% sure.

Both terms describe stations in a conveyor system chain beginning with the Zuführband -> *Weichenband* -> Zwischenband ..... -> *Weiche* -> Gondelzug ...

German:

- Die Gondelzüge der Pusher und die Weiche werden durch Servo-Regler gesteuert.

- Das Weichenband bewegt sich nach unten und die Gondelzüge warten in einer definierten Position.

- Nach dem Einschalten des Hauptschalters muss der Pusherantriebe und die Weiche referenziert werden.

-Dieser Wert entspricht der Ausrichtzeit des Lineal auf dem Weichenband, während dessen der Ausrichtbalken die Produktrei-hen zurückhält.

switching/diverting conveyor

Think your hunch is right. A conv. may be actuated to discharge in two or more places.
