A smooth changeover enables the same machine to handle a large variety of sleeves and cups organising them in numerous pack-patterns. A fast change-over procedure is facilitated by quick-release of easily-accessible format parts and a selection of parameters saved as recipes in the PLC.

Watch the 770 Series Wrap Around Sleever in Operation

A modular designed palletiser that can be adapted for both semi or fully automatic operation. The loading height can be at a high or low level to allow connection to any existing conveyors.

Packs are collated on an infeed conveyor, row by row, before being transferred to the loading plate by a pneumatic pusher. When a layer is complete, the loading plate seeks the correct level and moves out above the pallet for adjustment to the correct level. Two sweeper arms, one above and one below the loading plate, fix the new layer as well as the previous load, the loading plate then retracts. All movements of the loading table are motor-driven.

The palletiser can be equipped with a pallet magazine and pallet outfeed conveyors. The machine is easy to fit into an existing factory layout as the pallet magazine, infeed and outfeed conveyors can be placed in several different positions.

Gantry palletiser

The machine can be fitted with different types of lifting tools including vacuum suction cups, grip/clamp and or lifting plates and most products can therefore be handled.

The gantry robot is flexible and can be equipped with automatic pallet handling. In addition to this, the machine is easy to fit into an existing factory layout as the pallet magazine and Infeed/Outfeed conveyors can be placed in several different positions.

The flat sheet, referred to as a ‘blank’, is folded and glued around the pre-arranged products to form the case/tray. The packaging machines consist of flexible basic modules designed to meet the current customer requirements regarding pack types and sizes and also allows for future additions if and when they are required.

The machine design incorporates unique and interchangeable ‘blank’ feeders to allow different case/tray sizes to run on the same machine. This changeover procedure requires little time with all the different sized change parts easily and quickly accessible.

All packing takes place on one level with a maximum output speed of 20 cases per minute. The packaging machines can also be loaded with several ‘blank’ stacks for longer runs without the need for loading.

Products are collated into a given pack pattern and moved into a preformed carton blank. The correct seal of the packaging is ensured by glueing on the long side of the box.

The Trepko 760 series Pick & Place System is a fully automatic unit, suitable for top loading of products into cases, trays or crates. Products that can be lifted with vacuum, magnetic tool or gripper can also be packed.

The machine consists of tooth belt driven linear units for X and Z movements mounted in a stainless steel frame with interlocked guarding. Products and package conveyors with guides included.

The boxes arrive into the Pick and Place Unit from an infeed box conveyor with the short side leading. They come two trays at a time to a collating point. The products arrive in a single conveyor and are queued until there is the desired amount of containers. The lifting tool, assisted by suction cups, lifts and places the containers into the boxes. The Pick and Place Machine repeats this action until we have the desired pack pattern on two layers.

The system facilitates the packing of fragile products since the packing pattern does not primarily need to be used as a support. Gentle handling is enabled as the unit works according to the principle of controlled acceleration/deceleration. The drive unit is equipped with a safety clutch connected to the alarm lamp.

The entire packing procedure takes place in full view on one level, which makes the equipment easily accessible for format changes and maintenance, etc.

The ready box is fed out on a single lane conveyor.

A special blanks separator prevents more than one blank from being pulled down at once. The magazine is fed at chest height, which can take place during operation.

Gentle handling is enabled since the unit works according to the principle of controlled acceleration/deceleration. The drive unit is equipped with a safety clutch connected to an alarm lamp. An optimum folding sequence with distinct, fixed end positions ensures right-angled packaging.

The entire procedure takes place in full view on one level which makes the equipment easily accessible for format changes and maintenance etc.

The control cabinet and hot-melt unit are fixed standing on the side of the machine for easy access. Functional guard, complying with current CE regulations is manufactured in stainless steel.

The Trepko shrink wrapping machine is fully automatic, robustly designed for the shrink wrapping of products with or without trays to suit large volume operations of grouping or packing beverages such as juice, beer, mineral water, glass bottles, and cans.
