Pails and Handle Assembly

2–20 litre food and paint pails: 1–2 cavities, 8–15 s cycles, automatic in-line handle assembly.

Pails and Handle Assembly

In pail IML the label is large and wrap-around; on a 20 litre pail the 300 mm tall label must seat on the cavity wall without creasing. And at most plants the handle of the pail leaving the mould is still fitted by hand.

The SE-650 carries the large cores with its reinforced frame and 30 kg payload; the HA-Handle unit fits the handle in-line in 4 seconds. On 450–700 t machines with 1–2 cavity moulds, from 2 L to 20 L.

Challenges

  • Seating a wrap-around label up to 300 mm without creasing
  • Speed loss with heavy EOAT and wide mould daylight
  • 2 operators per shift for handle fitting
  • Metallic labels and static setting on paint pails

The Bor4 solution

  • Two-channel ES-Charge static charging (Simco-Ion generator) and mechanically supported label pick-up
  • SE-650: 2,000 mm stroke, 30 kg payload, double rack
  • Operator-free handle fitting with HA-Handle, seating check
  • High-voltage profile for metallic labels in the recipe

The time from the mould "open" signal to the robot's "mould area free" signal; measured at FAT with the customer's mould and cavity count and recorded.

Under 30 minutes if the quick-connect EOAT and cassette set are ready; the recipe is recalled from the HMI and magazine guides adjust by motor.

Robots 6–12 weeks: SE-Compact and TO-Side 6–8, SE-250 and SE-450 8–10, SE-650 and SE-Twin 10–12 weeks. Equipment and downstream units 2–10 weeks, a turnkey line 12–16 weeks. Each model's lead time is shown on its page.

Yes. The LM-4/LM-8 and ES-Charge come with their own control board and connect to any robot brand via digital I/O or EtherCAT.

The SE-Twin serves both parting lines of 2×6 and 2×8 cavity stack moulds in a single entry with its double-sided vertical plate.
