STANDARD EQUIPMENTS
90° Rotating separation
This device separates product groups or product packages coming from an orthogonal feed belt. The separator is composed of a product selection unit and a rotating bar unit driven by a brushless motor, to feed products into the machine.
Discontinuous separation
The press separation system is suitable for medium/low speed. The product is separated by the combined action of the press and the bottom conveyor belt. This solution ensures maximum simplicity for adjustments during format change operations.
Double gripper separator
This device is particularly suitable for the separation of boxes or cartons coming from an orthogonal feed belt. The separator is composed of a pneumatically-controlled double gripper which divides the products and arranges them on a double lane.
Diagonal gripper separator
This is particularly suitable for continuous feed belt operations. The separator is composed of a pneumatically-controlled gripper and the diagonal movement to continuously feed products into the machine is driven by a brushless motor.
Gripper separator with stacker
This gripper device controlled by a brushless motor separates and then stacks groups of products coming from an in-line feed belt. This solution is particularly suited for boxes.
Film Reels
Various film reel positioning solutions are available, the ergonomics are particularly well-designed. Better access for format change operations and reel sealing means excellent man-machine interaction.
overview
The TCS series range is the line of Prasmatic solutions for the production of medium-speed automatic shrink wrapping machines for end line packaging.
PRASMATIC TCS 310 SHRINK WRAPPING
Fast Feed 90° HIGH SPEED INFEED SYSTEM
option & data sheet
FAST FEED
FAST FEED: 90° infeed system. It avoids the use of lane divider and metering section at packer infeed. It improves hygienic design, simplifies change overs and improves flexibility in line layout design and machine compactness. It can be integrated with 90° and 180° package rotation device for facing or cap orientation inside the pack collations.
Pick and place
This device separates products coming from an orthogonal or in-line feed belt. It is particularly suited for products with an irregular and unstable shape, especially sauce or detergent bottles. The separator is composed of a product selection unit and a multiple pick-up gripper to pick up and feed separated products into the machine. The gripper is pneumatically controlled and moves along a linear guide driven by a brushless motor. The same solution can be applied to in-line feeding, exploiting the walking beam principle.
REMOVABLE FILM UNIT
The system offers easy access to the film unit, for quick and efficient maintenance. This application is particularly suited for liquid product sectors, such as dairy and beverage, where the primary packaging may break, possibly soiling the film.
Automatic reel change
The system seals and cuts the film in a fully-automated fashion without any operator intervention, this option makes it possible to continue without stopping film unwinding and the production cycle. The reel configuration is set up by the operator, through simple manual procedures.
T-Pad
To protect the carton gable tops, Prasmatic proposes placing a vertical layer of cardboard with a triangular fold on the end into the package made of heat-shrink film. The TPAD is the forming device that works without glue and places this layer between two rows of cartons. The device is normally combined with an orthogonal separator.
Stackers
The role of the stacker unit is to stack two or more layers of product, the unit can be configured differently based on the type of product or the packaging solution. Thanks to its reduced dimensions or its mechanism, it can be installed without increasing the footprint of the base machine.
Easy film
External film group for reel loading that grants better access for format change operations and reel sealing means excellent man-machine interaction. The external reels option also offers automatic reel-change.
