Overview
This slip-sheet dispenser is designed to discharge a corrugated sheet onto a waiting pallet. Corrugated sheets are being applied to every pallet before they are loaded with parts. A corrugated sheet will be picked-up from an 18″ high stack sitting in a collection bin and deposit it onto a waiting pallet, every two minutes. The system consists of five components;
- An automatic pallet dispenser that feeds the machine
- An air operated overhead shuttle that carries the vacuum carriage back and forth
- An up/down four cup, vacuum assembly that picks-up the sheets
- A collection bin for the stack of corrugated sheets
- The discharge pallet conveyor
