The Smallest Fully Automatic Unscrambler In The Industry

The Model AU-3 has most of the same features and options as the Model AU-6 except that it requires only 45 inches x 65 inches of floor space. It is the smallest fully automatic unscrambler in the industry--handling a wide range of containers with little or no parts, no air and has a low profile (the maximum height is 60 inches). Virtually all styles and shapes of plastic, metal and corrugated containers can be handled in the range of 1/2 inch to 6 inches tall and up to 3 inches wide. A wide range of speeds can be obtained depending upon container size.

How The ORIENTAINER® Bottle Unscramblers Operate

Above: Model AU-3M

Containers are randomly dumped into the supply hopper where they are gently deposited into the rotary re-feeder bowl on demand.

As the pre-feeder turns, the containers are single-filed and sent down an adjustable slide chute where they enter an exclusive "Stand Up Unit" which orients bottles to an upright position.

Models AU-6C and AU-5C, automatically invert, ionize, vacuum, clean and stand up the bottles onto the conveyor.

Once upright, the containers exit onto a take-away conveyor for the next downstream operation.

THE BENEFITS OF AUTOMATIC vs MANUAL BOTTLE UNSCRAMBLERS

KAPS-ALL Automatic Bottle Unscramblers effectively automate packaging production lines affording increased efficiency, savings and productivity. Savings are realized through effective use of personnel and associated costs over manual/semi-automatic unscrambler operations. KAPS-ALL unscramblers are designed for quick changeovers (accomplished in a few minutes) and durability resulting in less downtime. All unscramblers can be upgraded with the ability to change production lines without buying new machinery or training new personnel.
