CONTAINER FILLING DEVICE FOR PREFORMS
- Anodized ALU profile structure (thickness 15 Microns) Alloy 6060 90×90 mm
- FootMaster ground supports: a single device allows both locking to the ground and quick and safe handling in case of need
- Standard Soft Drop complete with control unit with Touch panel installed on the side for an easier and safer access, to control the operating process via PLC:
– standard Ethernet remote assistance
– vertical axis movement electrically operated
– work cycles and parameter settings displayed
– monitoring of the quantity of preforms placed in the containers by counting the moulding cycles of the production unit - Ethernet remote assistance: standard
- Power required (including loading CPT): 6 kW
- Standard voltage: 400 Volt / 50 Hz
- Compressed air: flow rate 8 litres/minute (0.48 m3/h) – pressure 300 kPA (3 Bars)
- Optionals:
– quality control by weighing the preforms per container with 0 to + 2% tolerance
– installation of vibrating platforms
– cooling device on loading conveyor
- The product from the moulding cycle is accumulated on the press and channelled by a mod. CPT conveyor to the mod. PA conveyor/distributor installed for programmed filling of the hoppers/lowerators
- Once the loading phase has terminated, the hopper descends into the container and, using an ultrasound sensor, releases the preforms at a minimum predefined height
- When the first container has been filled, filling of the second container begins, while an audible-visual alarm warns the operator that the filled container must be replaced with an empty one
- Possible types of containers that can be used:
– Octabin 1000×1200 mm
– Plastic containers 1000×1200 mm
– Wire mesh cages 1000×1200 mm
- “Soft” storage of products in the containers
- The quantity of products in the container is controlled by counting the IMM cycles or, on request, by weighing
