The Holmatic PH Series Lid Applicators and Lid Feed Magazines
Holmatic's
PH Series Lid Applicators and Lid Feed Magazines come in four
cost-effective, compact, reliable models. The PH-41C and PH-41SB models
automatically apply injection molded reclosure lids to cans that are
straightwall metal, plastic, or fiber at speeds up to 200 cpm (containers
per minute). Model PH41P provides lidding solutions for both tapered and
straightwall containers in round, oval, or rectangular configurations at
speeds up to 300 cpm.
The PH Series' ultra-simple design eliminates the need for micro-switches,
air jets, or air cylinders. Lids are delivered to the feeding plate either
by spinning shafts or vertical chute systems. As a container passes under
the feed plate, it pulls a lid out and onto itself. The next lid is then
automatically lowered or fed into position. For cans, a roll-on top belt
positively applies the lids as the cans travel upright on a flat-top
conveyor through the machine. For containers, a separate press-down shoe,
after the lid pickup area, ensures positive lid application. For highest
speed applications, the PH-41P offers a continuous motion, pocketed conveyor
system to move the upright container quickly and securely through the
machine.
Quick ratchet height adjustment for varying can or container heights is
standard on the 41C, SB, and P. Change parts for different diameters are
available on all models. With change parts, any of these lid applicator
units can be transformed from one size to another in minutes.
All PH Series machines are available with a lid feed storage and delivery magazine to free the machine operator for other duties on the packaging line. Loading the magazine feeder is done without stopping the line. Since feeder cycling is completely variable and impulsed by photo electric eye on an "as needed" basis, it is adaptable to all spinning-roll-type machines.
Every one of Packaging Technologies' Holmatic equipments meet or exceed all applicable USDA and 3-A Dairy requirements, and are backed by Holmatic's Total Systems Support program.
