PennTech dual tray-loader for high output
News from: Biopharma Process Systems
Edited by: Processingtalk Editorial Team on 9 May 2005
The uniquely designed PennTech trayloaders are now available in the UK and Ireland through Biopharma Process Systems.
The PennTech TL200 dual trayloader is designed for high output, in aseptic and non-aseptic applications.
PLC-controlled, the TL200 will handle plastic and glass vials with speeds of up to 400 vials per minute.
Glass and plastic vials from 1-500ml can be processed.
The machine will automatically optimise for each vial size, seamlessly loading them into a nested pattern.
With change parts, trays of up to 610 sqmm can be handled.
The tool-free changeover procedure is quick and easy, taking less than 2 minutes to complete.
All actuators are stepper motor controlled and come equipped with programmable encoders that will automatically halt production in the event of an obstruction.
To ensure that the vertical unidirectional airflow is not interrupted, there are no overhead parts, and the machine frame is approximately 20cm below the work surface to minimise vertical airflow disturbance.
To aid cleaning, the tray beds and conveyor are mounted on columns, away from the machine frame.
The machine is constructed from AISI-304 stainless steel with AISI-316L available where required.
