Each Kliklok line contains a “Smooth Independent Product Transfer Unit” (SIPTU), a “Rotary Transfer System”, an HSR high-speed end load cartoner, and a QS600 shrinkwrapper. The trays are received narrow end leading from upstream equipment and using Kliklok's “smartbelt” technology, the SIPTU smoothly positions them for entry into the RTS carousel unit.
The RTS has a series of product control arms to gently lift each tray and using a rotary motion, re-orientate them to become broadside leading on entry to the product infeed conveyor of the HSR end loader, inserting, and closing at up to 250 cartons/min, to a boost capacity of 300/min.
Filled cartons are checked through an open flap detector unit, and then collated and shrinkwrapped on the QS600 in bundles of 10 and 12.
