Rapid solution

The new RaPCo rapid changeover solution from Sick UK will be on show to the processing and packaging industry.

Improving the speed and efficiency of product changeovers on multiproduct lines is presenting tough challenges for processing and packaging industries. The RapCo system is designed to offer a reliable, automated solution to protect product quality and boost productivity.

RapCo promises to speed up product changes by adjusting mechanical stops automatically through an integrated package of sensors, drives, a controller, display and cabling. Said to be simple to operate, all RapCo's settings can be configured via a display and no knowledge of plc programming is needed. The result is a system with batch-specific settings that achieves speed and repeatability while reducing rejects. Stand D12
