Going “Behind the Curtain” to Experience Robotic Technology

At Booth #S-2100 at Pack Expo this week, BW Container Systems provides an interactive experience with a collaborative robot. “Behind the Curtain” allows show attendees to get up close and personal with an LBR iiwa robot supplied by KUKA robotics. A video wall will also let visitors view case studies of some of BW Container Systems’ most innovative systems.

Additionally, BW Container Systems will exhibit its AdaptA Mini-Buffer in an innovative packaging loop. The AdaptA Series offers efficiency-enhancing buffering, accumulation, as well as pressure-less line controls. The AdaptA ML Series is ideal for non-round, odd-shaped containers. This flat, multi-lane system features first-in, first-out product flow, pressure-less accumulation throughout with high speed capability and is scalable, easy to access and operate. The ML Series uses two small buffers for its unique operation and this buffering technology can also be used in a separate distinctive solution, the AdaptA MB Series. The MB Series is a new and enhanced way to convey product while providing buffering capabilities. Ideal for non-round containers, the MB also handles rounds at high speeds with virtually no changeover. Both the ML and MB are available in a variety of layout configurations custom fit to production lines, and the floor level construction improves safety and reduces product damage versus vertical, spiral accumulators.
