These are not only less time consuming but reduces labour intensive inputs. 

The shortest path between two points is a straight line, however, this is not always possible, practical or feasible. So, we build conveying systems that move products from Point A to Point B considering temperature, motion, speed and all handling parameters to create conveying systems that work. Simply put, we mastered conveying engineering for optimum line control. 

We combine equipment ergonomics – mechanical, robotic and pneumatic – to give you a solution tailormade for your production facility.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”CUSTOMISED BAKERY SOLUTIONS” tab_id=”1479286255822-73d31525-f424cc36-965e”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1576583888620{margin-bottom: 32px !important;}”]

Lidding

[/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YPy-9oaBP0″][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1576582276642{margin-bottom: 32px !important;}”]The lidding robot system places the lids onto the pans. This is done using an ABB robot system with conveyor tracking. The conveyor tracking allows us to place the lids on the fly. Two lids are placed onto pans at a time and this allows us a capacity of at least 8000 loaves per hour.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

De Lidding

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTLGYcfk6Ls”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]The de-lidding robot system removes the lids from the pans. This is done using an ABB robot system with conveyor tracking. The conveyor tracking allows us to remove the lids on the fly. Two lids are removed from the pans at a time and this allows us a capacity of at least 8000 loaves per hour. The lids are then placed onto a conveyor which travels to the lid cooling system.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

De Panning

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXbqdBtWG6E”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]The depanning robot system is designed to remove the baked loaves from the after the delidder has removed the lids. This is done using an ABB robot system with conveyor tracking which allows us to do it on the fly. The loaves are removed by pans of a powerful suction system. The loaves are then placed onto the bread conveyors which then transport them to the spiral cooler. This system has a capacity of at least 8000 loaves per hour.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

Pan Storage

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ww5ne4omLI”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]The pan storage system is used for storing the pans when they are not in use. The pans are picked up using a powerful magnetic gripper which then collects the pans and stack them on top of each other into an array. This system has a capacity of at least 8000 loaves per hour.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

Crate Loading

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ww5ne4omLI”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Our crate loading solutions allows crates to be loaded automatically. The product, the way of packaging required and the line capacity will determine the solution used. It can be done wither by pick-and-placing or by pushing the products in. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

Crate Stacking

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FisCiIthTd4″][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]Most bakeries pack bread into plastic crates. Once the bread is packaged, the crates make it easier to transport and store the bread without squashing it. Our crate stacking solution automatically stacks these plastic crates on top of each other and often places the stack onto a steel dolly making it easier to handle. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

Palletising

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5i_c1fmEpM&t=”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]We offer customisable sorting and palletising applications to fit any high speed complex packing strategies our clients require. The high-speed palletising application is able to execute up to 16 pallets per hour depending on the product weight and distance from pick to place The robot application has a payload of 500kg.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

Lid storage

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdyuPOyGO18″][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]The lid storage system is used for storing the lids when they are not in use. The lids are picked up using a pneumatic vacuum system. They are then placed into stackers for storage. This system has a capacity of at least 8000 loaves per hour. This system is designed in two versions. One version requires the customer to weld studs onto the lids to enable us to stack the lids on top of each other, the other system does not require studs however we would then supply stacking pillars to enable us to stack the lids on the pillars.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

High-Speed Pick & Place Application

[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myAuDrya6kM”][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]This high speed pick and place application is capable of executing up to 90 complete movements per minute depending on product weight and distance from pick to place positions. This robot can handle up to a 8kg payload including the handling equipment and can pick and place over a distance up to 1600mm.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”MODEL SOLUTIONS” tab_id=”1573206314016-33612f18-800acc36-965e”][vc_column_text]
