Board Converting NEWS INTERNET DIRECTORY

Phillips, Wisconsin based BW Papersystems announced a new product offering in its Aftermarket portfolio. The patented Robofeed system is an automatic ream count- ing and feeding system for ream wrappers of any brand. It replaces the manual ream infeed of a folio wrapper with a robotic solution. Robofeed is fully automated and as the manual infeed is eliminated, it increases the efficiency of the wrapper while providing constant, predictable operation. The man- ual ream feeding option remains for more flexibility.

The Robofeed works with three robotic arms. Two arms are equipped with grippers, replacing the human arms when pushing the ream into the wrapper. The third robotic arm takes care of counting the sheets. Two types of count- ing systems are available: either a disc system, ensuring a highly precise count with virtually zero tolerance, or a simple caliber system, measuring the height of the ream. BW Papersystems offers this automation solution as an optional feature for new wrappers or as an upgrade for folio wrappers of any kind. To learn more, visit bwpaper- systems.com .
