 Nalbach
Engineering has released a new Model of its
NECOSORT
bottle unscrambler, the NECOSORT-BH with only two (2) moving parts,
color touch screen with PLC control, and integral bulk hopper.
The NECOSORT family of bottle unscramblers has only two (2) moving
parts and one of them is the discharge conveyor. The actual bottle
unscrambling mechanism features a single moving part. This design
insures maximum reliability, minimal maintenance, elimination of
spare parts and no adjustments. All change parts are “tool free†and
feature a “positive alignment system†for precise positioning and
quick changeovers. With no reciprocating motions, complicated
mechanisms or hard to adjust container handling parts, maintenance
and downtime is virtually eliminated.
Using Nalbach Engineering's “Pocket and Chute†technology, each
individual bottle receives gentle handling, minimizing chances of
scratching, scuffing or damage. In addition, this design provides
the flexibility to vary the number of “pockets and chutes†based on
the size of the bottle maximizing the performance and throughput for
each individual bottle and increasing the overall flexibility of the
machine to run a broad range of bottle sizes and shapes.
The “BHâ€, model comes standard with a PLC and color touch screen
control. This control system provides an intuitive icon-based
graphical user interface making training, set-up and operation
simple and straightforward. The control system is also a powerful
foundation for providing the features and integration capabilities
required for a range of production environments. Capabilities
include: “recipe†control, bottles per minute indication, fault /
warning indications and logging, “run permissible signalâ€, discrete
I/O and system integration via RS232/485, Data Highway (DH/DH+),
Ethernet, or DeviceNet.
The NECOSORT-BH includes an integral bulk hopper and elevator. The
integral bulk hopper has a 35 cubic foot capacity and the “flightedâ€
belt elevator includes a photo eye to automatically control the feed
of bottles to the unscrambler. The “BH†minimizes the overall
footprint of the system for easy integration into tight production
areas.
This new product is available worldwide through Nalbach's direct
sales and manufacturers reps.
