As an enhanced version of the item above, this system has preset positions so the machine head goes to the selected position for a given size container. Benefit: reduces changeover time further, reducing downtime.

Motorizes the up/down movement of the machine head during product changeover. Benefit: saves time by motorizing an otherwise manual function, reducing changeover time and increasing productivity.

If an operator misses a "Low Material" indication and the roll is fully consumed, this sensor will pause the machine and stop the material just after it comes off the core, providing enough material to splice in the next roll. Benefit: Prevents the end of the material from running through the machine; minimizing the need to rethread the machine, reducing downtime in the event a roll runs out.

Opens and forms the sleeve lending itself to high speed film applications. The sleeving material flows over the Mandrel, which can be cylindrical, oval, or rectangular in cross section, fully and positively opening the sleeves as they are applied to the product Benefit: one machine can run a variety of sizes of mandrels – very versatile, built for speed.

Sensor which reads the diameter of the material roll as it is consumed. Once a point close to the end is reached (this point is adjustable) a signal is sent to an indicating light which may be located on the control panel, touch screen, or light a beacon on top of the machine. Benefit: operator can be prepared to change material rolls, reducing downtime.

Monitors the air pressure coming into the system and pauses the machine if pressure drops below a preset level. Benefit: insures systems that require air pressure, such as inspection/ejection or static eliminator, are able to run properly, having the required pressure. Detects utility flow issue and allows quick correction; minimizing downtime.

For lines, typically beverage or food, with large amounts of product backpressure. The pressure relief unit is typically a star wheel mounted on an electronically controlled brake. When the machine is in the pause mode the brake is engaged, holding back the excess line pressure from the infeed of the machine. Benefit: This reduces the effect of, and keeps the machine from being knocked out of adjustment by, excessive line pressure.

Mounting of a florescent light fixture in large main electrical enclosure. Benefit: provides light for troubleshooting and maintenance within the main electrical enclosure. Not required for standard enclosures, even on large machines. Used only when enclosures are enlarged by additional hardware.

Mounted on the operator control panel, this keyed switch limits the jog function to those with a key such as a maintenance person. Benefit: Locks out operators from misadjusting the machine, limits maintenance or machine adjustments to those authorized, and minimizes downtime by preventing incorrect adjustment.

For verification of the presence and/or location of a tamper evident seal or label, system utilizes either the visible or ultraviolet light spectrums. Ejection unit moves the product in question off the production line onto an optional tray or customer-provided bin. Benefit: provides automatic inspection and confirmation of sleeve presence and/or placement, and greatly minimizing product that does not comply with acceptable criteria. Minimizes visual inspection and produces a higher quality product flow.
