ABC Model 101
Automatic Robotic Decaser
Gentle product handling and precise operation are
key in maintaining maximum package quality, and
A-B-C lift and place uncasers provide both.
Synchronized operation keeps containers under
complete control during uncasing. PLC electronics
precisely implement all operating commands to
ensure accurate placement, and provide instant
response to changing production conditions.
For glass or plastic containers, choose the Model
101, a pick and place uncaser that provides smooth
and gentle product handling to maintain optimum
package integrity.
Features to Ensure Gentle Product Handling
Containers are firmly controlled from conveyor to case, utilizing a
variety of container grippers depending on the product. The gripping
mechanisms space the containers during transfer to accommodate case
partitions and ensure smooth packing with no bottle contact.
Compact Design
Robotic Action Ensures Gentle Handling
The pick and place operation is servo-driven, providing precise
container placement thereby reducing label damage and
container scuffing. Containers are not dropped, but are gently
lowered to the bottom of the case, providing:
•
Improved bottle stability when handling lightweight plastic
containers
•
Reduced risk of breakage when handling glass
•
Gentle handling of heavy, industrial-sized containers
•
Offers packagers the option to use thin-wall containers
without sacrificing packaging performance
