Description

In the old configuration, the layer-guides quadrature is pneumatically activated requiring manual adjustment by the operator for each format change over.

In the new configuration, there are motorized guides on all three sides of the lifter and the encoder for positioning.

No manual/mechanical adjustments are necessary to change the format/layer thanks to the automatic function.

Less maintenance needed due to the belt transmission instead of the mechanical one.


Key message
Motorized compaction guides for optimal layer formation, reduced maintenance, fast format change over

Machine application

Pal Kombi, Pal Linear


Benefits

Efficiency

  • Immediate format change.

Maintenance

  • No mechanical transmission thanks to the belts, that requires less maintenance.
