Robotic loading system allows flexibility for packaging lines
May 1st 2011

Increased flexibility for shelf ready packaging lines is being offered by food packaging automation specialists Abar with its new LR- 80TCR Loading System. A FANUC Robotics M10-iA robot is the core automation component of the LR-80TCR allowing loading speeds of thermo formed or top sealed rigid trays at speeds of up to 200 ppm.

Each new LR-80TCR Loading System comprises retail pack in-feed conveyors, a case erecting system for Regular Slotted Containers (RSC), an LR-80 robot case loader and a case closer.

Designed to comfortably operate duty cycles of 24 x7 the FANUC Robotics M10-iA has well proven reliability with low maintenance being a key feature of its design, says the firm.

The system has been designed with future use in mind allowing upgradeability for plastic returnable supermarket crates or other containers.

The FANUC robot has a small footprint in comparison to conventional mechanical case loader/packers making the system ideal where space is restricted.With a choice of case erecting options available and the ability to pack a range of case formats with instant or minimal change times, the system offers users
