Celebrations all round for new Lid Placer
Market leading co-packers invest in our lid placing system to place lids on a well known, assorted 1kg chocolate tub. Maverick Automation Ltd re-engineered a current conveyor system to provide a dual belt transport of product through the lidding equipment; prior to the lid placing tubs are free to accumulate on the low friction area, through the marshalling system. Once marshalled, product is driven through the lidding system on high friction belts to facilitate the application and lid closing. The machine has been designed and built with ease of operation in mind, the magazine stack can be loaded at any time and withstand aggressive loading (a warning beacon notifies operatives when the magazine is running low), robust construction allows this machine to take the everyday knocks and bumps associated with a fast paced production environment. This machine has been designed to exceed the required 235mm diameter lid application rate by 15% allowing the ability to ‘catch-up’ when extra tubs are added to the production line. Also controlled by the lid placer is a pre-lidding, product level check. Any visably under-filled or empty tubs are automatically removed from the line prior to the lidding application allowing an increased output percentage.
