Bottle loader

Application

For loading of bottles into plastic crates.

Throughput

Up to 320 cycles per hour, e.g. 50.000 bottles /hour (with 20 bottles per 1 crate).

Construction

Robust, one-pillar construction with bottle layers transfer into crates by means of 8 heads with bell-shaped vacuum grippers. The loader works in cycles and can be used for both loading and unloading. During the loading, bottles arrive on a layer formation table, where they are divided into separate lines. Crates are transported to the loader on a crate conveyor and they are positioned in 2 lines. The gripping head lifts up the bottles and loads them into empty crates. The accurate and careful loading is achieved by the help of a guiding frame, which is activated either by pneumatic or electric drive. The layer formation table and the infeed conveyor for crates are driven by three-phase drives with frequency inverters. To comply with safety regulations, the lifting unit has a brake, the whole equipment is fenced and the entry doors are equipped with safety interlocks.
