Servo cartoner delivers speed and accuracy

It ran multiple blister packs with up to two additional inserts at PACK EXPO.

With a maximum mechanical speed of 300 cartons per minute, the cartoner will run 200 cpm in a single product configuration.  In addition to 11 servos, the ELAU packaging automation solution also integrates with 7 Schneider Electric stepper motors for automated changeovers, plus AC drives and a Magelis HMI panel.

There are 7 automated adjustment points to accommodate different product sizes and configurations.  Z Automation Company’s patented dynamic product buckets and servos reduce the need for change parts.  Recipe-driven format size changeovers can be accommodated in 10 minutes or less from the HMI.
