The new Component Pick-Up Unit helps automate the internal flow of finished products by conveying plastic components, such as caps for milk, water, soft & sports drinks, and other similar products. The CPU system is specially developed to gently pick up small plastic components by sucking them through a pipe / hose system. The configured pipe system consists of steel pipes and flexible hoses.
“The new pick-up unit completes the product range we have for conveying of finished components” R&D Manager Steen Hansen explains, “The system gently picks up components in bulk from the warehouse and conveys them to your production or packaging area. It is all up to you! You decide how many components to release per batch – and how many batches per hour”.
The system utilizes the frequency-controlled blower, the MultiAir® FC, coupled with a component vacuum loader named CVL for material collection, separation, and discharge. Manufacturers can now move their finished products in specified batches to descramblers, gaylords, boxes, silos, etc. with a high degree of both speed and reliability.
