Model: PPS-1000D

Description

The PPS-1000D Desiccant Placing System cuts and places packets into a bottle on a high-speed bottling line. The self-contained system is complete with a servo-controller and touch screen operator interface, and provides accurate, efficient production operation. The precision and accuracy of packet placement by the PPS-1000D avoids product damage such as cutting out of position, and provides reliable packet dispensing into almost any secondary operation with exact synchronization to match the speed of continuously moving flights

The system module employs a servo-driven in-feed belt which pulls the product from the tote or reel over the in-feed web guide for web support and control. The web string is pulled by the first set of servo-powered belts that accurately present the web to the cutting position with high accuracy. A high-efficiency shear knife cuts each package, delivering it to the servo out-feed belt, and dispensing it into a continuously moving receptable with precise positioning. The shear knife is actuated by an air cylinder, and is mounted such that it remains perpendicular to the fixed knife edge, for clean, precision cutting and long-lasting knife service.

A second servo module provides the exacting control of the packet after the cut for precision timing to synchronize placement into the secondary packaging process. This level of precision for higher speeds and continuous motion allows the PPS-1000D to support a broader variety of applications.

The modular design and construction of the PPS-1000D supports a multitude of configurations and mounting options to meet a wide range of application requirements with ease. Light weight, small size, and configuration versatility make the PPS-1000D ideal for a wide range of dispensing applications.
