Vision Detection Press On Ring Handle Applicator Machine With Storage Hopper Bulk Feeding & Sorting

Press-On Ring Machine (with Storage Hopper) – Product Characteristics

This machine was developed to address the issue of jamming caused by improper orientation during high-speed centrifugal and vibratory feeding. It is designed to accommodate various handle (ring) shapes and weights—simply replace the corresponding gripper tooling to fundamentally resolve feeding-related problems.

Operating Principle & Key Features:

• Bulk Feeding & Sorting: Handles are evenly distributed onto a sorting conveyor via a bucket elevator. A parallel robot equipped with a vision detection system identifies each handle.

• Precise Orientation: Grippers pick handles from the conveyor and rotate them to the preset orientation as required.

• Accurate Placement: The oriented handle is placed precisely above the bottle mouth.

• Bottle Centering System: A centering mechanism on the conveyor automatically adjusts spacing according to bottle dimensions, ensuring every bottle travels at the centerline with consistent speed.

• Primary Pressing: Handles are pressed down below the support ring by a roller-type pressing unit.

• Vision-Guided Supplementary Pressing: If any handle fails to reach the preset position, a vision-tracking pressing mechanism performs a secondary press to ensure proper installation.

• Synchronized Operation: Conveying, pressing, and inspection occur simultaneously in a fully synchronized process.

• Re-circulation of Missed Handles: Any handle not successfully picked by the gripper is recirculated via the conveyor back to the bucket elevator for re-sorting and re-feeding.
