AUTOMATION z Line competence at a glance
Two automated lines provide a live overview of Syntegon ’ s line competence . The first line features the newly developed robotic pick and place platform RPP . The RPP Delta Robots load cookies into the infeed chain of the Pack 403 HE horizontal flow wrapper , which is specifically designed for a harsh environment and high production volumes . The flow-wrapped cookies are then packed into cartons on the Kliklok ITC integrated topload cartoner .
The second line demonstrates Syntegon ’ s international footprint - all technologies come from different sites and can be seamlessly integrated into one comprehensive bag-in-box line for crackers - the SVE 3822 vertical bagger feeds the crackers into a Kliklok MEC endload cartoner using the bag in box interceptor infeed with continuous motion . A virtual display shows how the line can additionally be equipped with an Elematic case packer that is known for its pack style flexibility as well as tool-less and quick format changeovers .
