Customer success story: Rockwell Automation

CWM Automation’s cleverly designed CWM200R uses advanced automation to package GLORIOUS! soup at a prodigious rate.  The CWM200R is set to rewrite the rule books when it comes to volumetric filling and dispensing rates – thanks in part to Rockwell Automation’s advanced automation equipment.  A number of different approaches have been tried in the past, including servo pneumatics and simple mechanical systems.  In the case of pneumatics the inertia and smoothness of movement was too erratic and the mechanical approach did not offer the flexibility to modify the process as required by the customer.

 Justification for the adoption of an Allen-Bradley based servo motor approach has been vindicated with truly astounding performance figures CWM Automation is now able to achieve.

Sinclair Animal & Household Care Automates its Fish Food Line

Task: To design & build a fully automated weighing, filling and closing machine capable of packaging fish food into various sizes of pot.

Solution: The RFS 10-2 – a fully automated 10 station twin-pocket rotary star wheel type machine capable of filling 5 different pot sizes at a maximum of 60 pots/min dependant upon pot size/type.

Benefits:  Fully automated process – increased productivity – less product waste -  savings in labour costs – interchangeable pot sizes & weights

Sinclair Animal & Household Care (SAHC) chose CWM Automation Ltd to design and build a bespoke weighing, filling & packaging fish flake machine for its Gainsborough site.  The new 10 station twin-pocket rotary machine is designed and built to SAHC’s specific requirements and is based on integrated “stations”.  The product infeed station consists of a vibratory hopper with a bucket elevator on a gantry with steps which feeds into the weigh station.  A variable speed rotary table feeds onto a conveyor to transport the pots down to the filling and sealing machine.

The machine includes technological innovations to control the weight of this extremely light & variable product incorporating the latest hi-tech multi-head weigher.  To take account of the varying pot heights a servo adjustable loading platform was used to assist the transfer of pots into and out of the filling & closing stations.
