Versatile handling
16 October 2013
Specialist in packaging solutions for the personal care, cosmetics, pharmaceutical and food markets, Plastek, has engaged UPM Conveyors to automate product handling at its Mansfield factory.

Versatility of operation is provided via an HMI touch screen control for all products from injection moulding machines to be transferred to the fully automatic assembly and packaging machines without any manual involvement. This is achieved using multi-way diverters.
Under press reversing reject belt conveyors operate via the machine SPC control to ensure only good product is transported via swan neck belt conveyors to high level conveyors.
