New robotic loader from Delkor
By Canadian Packaging Staff
GeneralDelkor also introduces a new marketing and communications manager.
Delkor Systems, headquartered in Minneapolis, MN, has recently unveiled its new compact footprint robotic loader (see photo above) that allows maximum production efficiency when loading products such as nutritional bars into tri-seal cartons capable of speeds of 400 bars per minute, with multiple bars per pick into cartons of single or multiple layers.
The robot cell incorporates an articulating end-of-arm tool designed to gently yet accurately control the bars during loading. Cartons are accurately indexed into the cell and positioned for loading via servo-driven side belts.
The walk-in frame design features full-length doors which provide easy access for housekeeping between production runs. Sanitary design is considered throughout, featuring a robust frame of stainless steel and use of FDA-approved materials on all food-contact surfaces.
Fast and easy product changeover for a wide range of carton sizes and bar lengths is completely tool-less and can be performed in under five minutes using no change parts.
