Collators and Loaders
The Smurfit Westrock PMA range of high-speed feed line machines are collectively known as Carton Collators and Loaders. Suitable for any application, each machine can be stand alone or integrated into your production line. The range includes robotic collators and loaders, horizontal and vertical starwheel orientation systems, race track uprighters, feed and turn scroll systems and lane diverters.
Smart software and factory automation maximises production while reducing costly downtime and repurposes labour.
Robot Collators and Loaders
Our Robot Collators and Loaders allow you to automatically pack product into pre-erected, lined or unlined corrugated trays or cases. With a robotic palletiser your product can be stacked in any orientation, within your container, allowing for fully automated shelf-ready packing and reduced supply chain costs.
Due to the continuous motion of robot collators and loaders there is no need for an operator, reducing labour and maintenance costs as well as health hazards. The user interface is friendly allowing for quick and repeatable size changes.
The WestRock PMA Systems Robotic Carton Loaders are fully adjustable and upgradable. KUKA’s precise, 6 axis servo-controlled automatic tool change over and interchangeable tooling, gives the robotic machine flexibility, over the original tray/case packer, to handle multiple product sizes.
The adjustable pick and place tools allow for accurate product placement every time. Our robot collators and loaders have a compact footprint allowing for an efficient usage of floor space.
