High-speed bottling operations require precision and efficiency, and Pace, a ProMach product brand, has stepped up to the challenge with the VersaSort™ unscrambling system. This new solution, powered by Beckhoff Automation’s PC-based control technology, is designed to streamline bottling operations by eliminating mechanical complexity and enhancing flexibility. In a new article on Packaging World, Matt Reynolds dives deep into the technology and what sets this system apart.
Smarter Bottle Unscrambling with Advanced Automation
Traditional bottle unscramblers rely on mechanical systems that can be challenging to adjust and maintain. VersaSort™ revolutionizes this process using servo-driven automation to minimize manual adjustments and enable seamless changeovers between bottle sizes and shapes.
“We can run a higher containers-per-minute rate per robotic unit than other descramblers on the market because of our vacuum transfer system,” DiGregorio says in the Packaging World article. “This technology ensures that the system can handle a wide variety of container types without causing damage, including delicate products with soft-touch finishes.”
With Beckhoff’s PC-based control system, the VersaSort™ delivers precise motion control, reducing bottlenecks and increasing throughput. The system’s modular design ensures scalability, allowing manufacturers to adapt quickly to changing production demands.
What Sets VersaSort™ Apart?
This machinery represents a significant leap in bottle unscrambling technology. Key benefits include:
- Servo-Driven Precision: Eliminates the need for complex mechanical adjustments, making the system more flexible and reliable.
- Seamless Changeovers: Easily accommodates different bottle types, making it ideal for pharmaceuticals and personal care industries.
- Compact Footprint: Takes up less space while enhancing efficiency and reducing operational disruptions.
- Reduced Downtime: The advanced automation ensures fewer jams and less maintenance, improving overall productivity.
A Game-Changer for Bottling Operations
By integrating Beckhoff’s state-of-the-art automation technology, Pace has created an unscrambling solution that enhances efficiency, flexibility, and reliability in high-speed bottling operations.
