Douglas' Ascend™ Bottom Loader is a compact, fully automated machine designed to load flexible and/or complex shaped products into cases. Best suited for tubs, cylindrical and heavy products, the Ascend™ will meet your specific packaging requirements and deliver the ideal solution for your low speed packaging needs.
Employing the SmartSelect™ Automatic Changeover for multi-lane conveyors and infeed rails, the Ascent offers for various enhancements:
Changeover time – significantly reduces time to less than 5 minutes (time of changeover is dependent on extent of changeover)
Repeatability – rail positions are recipe-driven and locked in place to within +/- 1/32″
Flexibility – ability to place lanes where desired as opposed to centerline or fixed side adjustments and more customer options for generating product-specific recipes
Durability – infeed rail’s holding force can withstand high product pressure
Ergonomics – minimizing manual adjustments maximizes efficiency and promotes safety in the work environment

A variety of infeeds and metering techniques for efficient product handling
