RP900 Rotary Pick and Place Feeder
Inserting three-dimensional products into a high-speed production line is difficult. At Pack-Smart Inc. we understand your challenges. That is why we have developed what is now the industry standard feeding system, the Rotary Pick and Place 900 Series. Feeding the world since 1996 the RP900 Series has tipped and packed everything from soap, coffee, video games, CD/DVD box sets, secure cards and more. This module allows you to accurately place varying three-dimensional shapes and sizes onto your production line with the unprecedented accuracy of ±1.6mm. You can now consistently do this at a rate of up to 250 products per minute. That’s 15,000 per hour! The articulating suction arms will rotate 360° and can be spaced to accommodate a wide range of sizes and with the self-contained, dual-vacuum system you can even manage objects weighing up to one pound.
