V 30 Vertical Robotic Case Packer
The Model V 30 Vertical Case Packer is a state-of-the-art robotic packaging machine that incorporates the latest in mechanical and electrical technology into its unique design. Built on a FANUC vision-guided robot platform, system can run bottles (plastic or glass), cartons, jars, and/or bags. The multi-axis feature enables the robot to handle applications that would otherwise be impossible with standard pick-and-place units. An ergonomically designed, large capacity, case magazine feeds the servo driven case packer that can run up to 30 cases/minute. Various product infeed and collation features are available. Changeover can be accomplished in 15-20 minutes or less. Custom end-of-arm-tooling is to designed to meet the exact requirements of the application. ESS Technologies, Inc. is an authorized FANUC Robotics system integrator and Strategic Relationship Partner for secondary packaging of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.
The system can incorporate several models of FANUC robot, depending on the payload and reach requirements of the application. These models include:
