A line
of end-effector pickup heads for robotic and automation equipment that utilize
inflatable rubber bladders to gently grip bottles from the inside or outside are
available from ANVER Corp. of Hudson, Massachusetts.
ANVER
Bottle Pickup Heads are designed for high-speed automation equipment and feature
rubber bladders that gently inflate to pick up containers from
either inside the open mouth or by outside
the neck; using minimal pressure. Providing instant attach-and-release,
they eliminate mechanical grippers which can crush and cause breakage, they are
pliable and non-marring, and they are offered in a wide range of FDA approved
materials, styles, and sizes.
Totally field-serviceable, ANVER Bottle Pickup Heads are compatible with all
major lines of bottling and packaging systems. The air picker end-effectors
inflate up to 140% of their size to lift from the inside, requiring only 15 psi
with no loss of flow, and the outside-of-the-bottle pickup heads utilize rubber
bladders inside a head constructed of plastic, anodized aluminum, or stainless
steel. |
