Sweepouts
Precision Movement Starts Here. Built to Handle the Heat.
DURA TEMP sweepouts—also known as sweepout paddles or pusher paddles—represent the first point of contact in hot-end ware handling. Designed to guide newly formed containers from the IS machine onto the conveyor, our sweepouts establish consistent alignment that minimizes damage, maximizes pack rate, and ensures smooth transfer through every downstream operation.
From flexible, fully adjustable designs to fixed configurations for long-run production, DURA TEMP offers sweepout assemblies for every plant need—OEM, aftermarket, or custom. Each generation builds on proven experience to provide the ideal balance of rigidity, adaptability, and durability in high-temperature environments.
