Mid-speed continuous motion packing with direct case loading

The Axiom® DL uses an overhead sweeping motion to directly load product onto the case or tray blank, minimizing unnecessary components and enhancing production efficiency. Direct load enables a compact design and straight-through product flow at speeds up to 55 cases/trays per minute.

  • Efficient Pack-Pattern Loading
    • All Axiom® loading techniques are designed to provide superior performance and reliability. Axiom® continuous motion servo technology delivers smooth, harmonious performance during case loading, while maintaining accurate product control for a wide variety of pack-patterns. Patented design and precise servo control enable:
    • Quick and repeatable changeovers
    • Greater speed
    • Gentler product handling
    • Increased flexibility
  • Flexible Conveying and Product Handling
    • A variety of advanced infeed solutions optimize performance for specific product types while maintaining gentle product handling to ensure the highest package integrity.
    • High-Speed Lane Divider - Easily handles round, rectangular, oval, and irregularly shaped products. The high-speed lane divider will ensure balanced lanes and gentle continuous motion product handling.
    • Smartrak® II - Mass flow infeed design eliminates soft bottle bridging and removes gaps to ensure pack-pattern accuracy and continuous product flow. Distinguishing features include modulated speed control programming for surge pressure relief at the choke point, single solid adjustment cross-members, tool-free clamps and pinned lane guide adjustment positions for stable operation and quick, accurate changeovers. By eliminating many mechanical changeover adjustments and replacing them with a one-clamp design, changeovers are seamless and fast.
    • Recirculating Conveyor - A complete recirculating loop system controls product population and reduces line pressure as products are distributed into lanes.
  • Pack-Pattern Collating Redefined
    • Douglas redefines the role of product pattern collating in high efficiency lines. Our patented technologies dramatically improve line throughput and production volume while providing remarkably stable product handling.
    • Slipstream™ - Patented pinless metering uses slip sheet methodology and servo technology to gently collate bottled, cartoned, canned and other products into pack-patterns without the use of tampers or escapement pins. Remarkable stability control results in faster handling than traditional metering methods. Tool-free changeovers and the intuitive HMI control panel also increase productivity.
    • The appropriate technology is determined based on speeds and your product. Slipstream™ offers more stability as product moves faster, especially with unstable product or odd size/shaped packaging.
    • Continuous motion partition insertion - When product partitions are included, servo controls precisely position and insert partitions without interruption.
  • More Flexibility, More Accuracy, More Performance.
    • Most changeovers are accomplished through a simple menu-driven process on the HMI. Operators simply select from pre-programmed recipes for specific products, and servo motors precisely make the required adjustments.
    • Recipe control of machine motions makes changeover precise and repeatable, minimizing ramp-up time.

Additional Information

 N/A Combining maximum speed and flexibility

Servo driven Axiom® continuous motion case/tray packers utilize smooth, continuous motion in all sections of the machines. To maximize throughput and improve product stability, cases never stop moving from loading to discharge. Servo functions reliably and accurately pack cartons, bottles, cans, jars, and jugs using innovative infeed technology and high-speed case loading methods with precise product control.
