AZCO Corp. has designed and manufactured a pouch dispenser for an application that required dispensing desiccant into bottles at a line speed of 80-90 bottles/min. The unit was designed for controlled environments.
• A roll of the desiccant material is placed on a motorized unwind which controls tension on the web and helps to ensure high accuracy and consistency.
• From the unwind the material is guided into the cantilever dual servo drive belts and self-feeds to the proper starting position.
• The optic system which is built into the knife cartridge tracks a position on the material.
• Once the material is indexed to the proper location, the knife assembly is triggered.
• The desiccant pouch is dispensed into bottles below which are guided by a timing screw on an adjustable speed conveyor.
An adjustable motorized equipment stand is included for easy mobility of the unit. A full Lexan enclosure separates the pouch from the outside environment.
The system, which requires 110VAC power and compressed air, includes a touch screen for easy setup and operation.
