Plastics Injection molding automation
For 25 years, we’ve been designing and building plastics automation solutions and equipment for a broad range of applications.
PLASTIC INJECTION MOLDING AUTOMATION THAT will GROW YOUR COMPANY
Plastics automation equipment runs the gamut from injection molding automation to plastic packing automation. For 25 years, we’ve been designing and building plastics automation solutions and equipment for a broad range of applications.
Companies turn to Summit Engineered Automation for inventive solutions to tough plastics industry automation challenges. Take, for example, a bag in a box valve assembly machine. This custom system uses Epson robots and precision cameras from Verkada.
A BAG-IN-A-BOX ASSEMBLY MACHINE IMPROVES QUALITY, SPEEDS PRODUCTION
The machine auto feeds stems and bodies. Robots pick and place the stem and assemble the body to the stem. Vision systems inspect the bags for short shots, and leak tests each assembly. With every pallet full (30 boxes), the machine runs through a challenge routine to ensure vision and leak tests are correctly calibrated.
