High speed hardware packaging lines

Weighpack, the Netherlands, has developed a high-speed packaging system especially for the handling of difficult, low volume, high weight products. The heart of the system consists of a multihead combination weigher to be combined with extensive possible ancillary equipment. Fasteners are fed through a magnetic upfeed belt, out of heavy-duty vibratory hoppers, into the combination weigher. Nails, screws, bolts etc in portions up to 2500g (5lbs) can be discharged with a weighing speed of up to 35 portions per minute at an extremely high accuracy. The orientation magnet is capable of coordinating product into 4 boxes at the same time. A double head box erector, using hot-melt, is used to erect the boxes at high speed. The machine can be changed over very rapidly. After height detection and check weighing, the boxes are closed by a Weighpack hot-melt carton closer.

A fully PC controlled thermotransfer labelling device assures you of flexible and high quality, text, logo and barcode identification. Combined with pick-and- lace unit, palletizer or other ancillary equipment, a fully automatic packaging line is formed

All Weighpack equipment is of a modular set-up which together forms a highly efficient packaging line, controlled through well considered synchronisation with statistical back up and unique code setting from product parameters allowing for a very fast changeover to another product reference.
