Depacking system for empty bottles with shrink-wrap material
Easily streamline your bottling line with a compact solution that efficiently removes shrink-wrap from empty bottles, ensuring seamless downstream processing.
The MD from Tecnicam is a compact depacking machine designed specifically for seamless integration into packaging lines within the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and bottling industries. What sets this equipment apart is its compact structure and stainless-steel protection, ensuring durability and user safety. Utilizing an embedded PLC system, the machine orchestrates precise movements for efficient handling and depacking of bottles. Its unique process involves cutting shrink-plastic material with spring-loaded, optionally heated blades, and managing the removal with grippers, ensuring the bottles remain intact. Ideal for depacking empty pharmaceutical pill bottles, syrup bottles, and beverage containers, the MD simplifies operations with CAM’s exclusive Mechanical Memory® system, allowing effortless format changes. With a high-speed, continuous operation mode, this machine supports streamlined bottle preparation for subsequent production stages, reducing manual handling and enhancing throughput in busy packaging environments.
