STACK MASTER 2018 - AUTOMATION SOLUTIONS

STACK MASTER 2018 – BASIC MODULE – STAND ALONE INSTALLATION
It is possible to add different automation modules to the standard stand alone Stack
Master in order to configure your automation project.
Here are some examples:

CONFIGURATION nr.1

Manual loading
Flexible auto unload selection:
A ) Stack returns in the operator’s hand
B ) Stack is automatically unloaded on the lift ( 16-24-32-48 levels )
Batch Management- Production log- average production times - etc
Fast batch size change over

In this configuration the average production of a 92 stacks batch with stack factor 3 composed of :

1 back-up
3 pcb
1 Entry foil
Is over 3 stacks/min

CONFIGURATION nr. 2

Pre-Centring station
Stack Transport system
Basic outlet station to be configured on different choices :
- Lift + Trolley
- Lift + Trolley & Cage ( 6 or 12 levels )
- Dual outlet left and right stack exits for delivery to buffer cages

TOP VIEW - STACK MASTER 2018 – BASIC MODULE +PRE-CENTRING STATION+OUTLET STATION

CONFIGURATION nr. 2 cont.

SIDE VIEW - STACK MASTER 2018 – BASIC MODULE +PRE-CENTRING STATION+OUTLET STATION
In this configuration the average production of a 92 stack batch with stack factor 3 composed of :

1 back-up
3 pcb
1 Entry foil
Is close to 4 stacks/min

CONFIGURATION nr.3

Note : In this configuration the system tapes only in the short sides of the stack, and therefore can serve machines equipped with side mushroom clampers
- Operator loads stack on main platform and orders the pinning and taping operation
- Stack Transport system will take pinned stack to the lift with a sorting station platform that will unload in the selected mode :
a) Left-right
b) Only left
c ) Only right
There are different possibilities
- Trolley 16 levels
- Trolley & Cage ( 6 or 12 levels )
