Featuring an innovative magnetic lift motion system, this feeder requires no air. The Tablet Elevator Feeder has a low loading height at 780mm. The system also boasts a hopper volume exceeding 100 Liters (3.53 ft³) and a transport bucket volume of 13 Liters (0.45 ft³). Achieving speeds ranging from 3.5 to 4 lifts per minute (up to 52 liters/m) (1.83 ft³), the elevator feeder's efficient design ensures optimal performance.
Carleton Helical Technologies
Carleton Helical Technologies manufactures product and package handling equipment including feedscrews and denesters. HP Feedscrews can be engineered to handle a wide variety of applications for container handling: divide, combine, collate, rotate, dwell, denest, register and meter. Helical Denesters are used to separate products such as cups, bowls, or trays that are delivered in stacks. These stacks can be manually or automatically loaded into the denester. The denester will hold the stacks and mechanically separate the product one at a time for discharge onto a conveyor, platform or lead station for transport onto the next stage of its processing. These units can work as a stand-alone system dispensing containers if they are preset or can be linked to upstream and downstream equipment to work in unison for a collaborative system.
Compass Industrial Group, LLC
Compass Industrial Group offers product and package handling equipment including tray denesters and merge systems. The TrayFlow Denester, designed to denest a wide range of trays and cups without vacuum cup or gripper contact, run at high speeds, with reliable single lane capabilities of up to 120 trays per minute. Compass also offers a full line of custom designed distribution systems, engineered to increase production efficiencies by reducing downtime and product scrap. Featured products include channeling boards, which can receive interlocked product and spread to predictable centers in addition to merging product rows from two to one, and three to two and the On-Edge Row Merging System, used to merge shingled product together. Related products include spreaders and vibratory accumulation systems.
Dabrico, Inc.
The DN-50 is a fully automatic denesting machine used to remove nested syringes. The system is suitable for different types of syringes or cartridges made of glass or plastic from 1/2ml to 20 ml.
Descon Conveyor Systems Corp.
Descon designs and builds product and packaging handling solutions for the food and beverage industries, including a range of transfers, elevator conveyors, and side-grip elevators. Vacuum transfer and elevator conveyors support applications such as the removal of down cans from the line or other applications that involve a sudden change in elevation. In horizontal format, the system can handle down can removal and empty can coding applications. Vertical format applications include mass transport of single file but can also be custom designed to suit nearly any elevation change. Side grip elevator for vertical transport applications offers an effective means of elevating or lowering a variety of containers and products when space is at a premium. Product is gently but firmly gripped by the sides and carried through the change in elevation at speeds up to 300 fpm. Side grippers are a soft, pliable material, guaranteed not to damage the container.
Harpak-ULMA Packaging, LLC
Advancements in robotics are making it easier to replicate the dexterity and vision once only available through human labor. Harpak-ULMA Packaging offers vision-assisted robots that can pick and place products precisely using improved grippers for delicate products. Applications for these robotics handling systems include infeed handling, raw food handling, primary packaging, secondary packaging, general material handling, and full-line and integrated solutions.
Heisler Industries, Inc.
Heisler Industries manufactures a denester that eliminates the demanding, time consuming and tedious task of manually separating plastic or metal pails, significantly improving production capacity and profitability. Designed and built in the USA, this high speed, PLC-controlled machine is made to exacting standards for trouble free, continuous use under varying conditions. Denester can denest round, square, rectangular, and oval buckets. A stack of pails is placed on the infeed conveyor and is delivered to the tilter arm, which converts the stack from the vertical to the horizontal position. The stack then advances to the separator mechanism, which holds the stack and removes one pail at a time. Each separated pail is fed to the upender, which transfers the pail to an upright position. The entire system continues to operate even as new stacks of pails are loaded. Standard Denester can denest and position containers for filling at a speed of 25/minute. Other denesters include the Compact Denester running at speeds of up to 15/min and the E-Series Denester, providing a compact solution in a modular and economical package for users whose line speeds are usually not more than 10 containers/minute.
Morrison Container Handling Solutions
Morrison Container Handling Solutions creates products, equipment, and full line solutions to handle rigid and semi-rigid containers for all packaging applications. Morrison’s timing screws, change parts, drive units, denesters, and specialty equipment move containers for applications including, orienting, stacking, dividing, combining, denesting (for trays, cups, lids, buckets, and pots), in addition to systems for collating, grouping and stacking. Morrison also has developed timing screw drive units, change parts, and timing screws that maximize efficiency, productivity, and ensure quality outcomes for feeding and inserting applications on packaging lines. All solutions are custom designed to the customer’s container and created to move containers more efficiently and increase throughput from anything to filling, capping, corking, labeling, case packing and beyond.
PharmaMed
PharmaMed supplies a robotic syringe denester designed to add flexibility to syringe packaging lines. Mobile syringe denester features a compact size and adjustable outfeed rail, allowing this system to adapt to a wide range of downstream equipment. Robotic denester handles multiple syringe sizes, from 1ml to 5ml, and can be figured for multiple tray layouts (100ct/160ct). The machine can also adapt to a broad array of downstream equipment.
Rexfab Corp.
Rexfab offers pan return systems for high-volume baking lines including pan stacking, pan unstacking, basket loading, basket denesting, case loading, and vacuum depanner systems.
