Operation of Machine
1. Introduction
The 16720 Sachet Cartoning Machine was designed and manufactured by Bector Automation RML Engineering India Pvt. Ltd. for FDC Limited.
Sachets are received from the customer's upstream filling line and passed through the sachet checkweigher, where rejected sachets are diverted to the rejection bin. Accepted sachets are transferred through the infeed conveyor to the vision inspection system for product presence and orientation verification.
In parallel, flat cartons are manually loaded into the carton magazines. The carton erection mechanism automatically picks, opens, and erects the cartons before transferring them onto the main drive conveyor.
At the filling section, three robotic pick-and-place units pick the accepted sachets and place them into the erected cartons according to the selected product recipe. The filled cartons are then transferred to the flap folding and tuck-in section, where the carton flaps are automatically closed.
The closed cartons pass through the carton checkweigher for weight verification. Rejected cartons are diverted to the rejection bin, while accepted cartons proceed to the inkjet printing and OCR/OCV inspection systems. Successfully verified cartons are transferred to the customer's downstream conveyor.
The machine also includes a manual bypass arrangement for carton handling during breakdown or manual operation.
The complete system is equipped with PLC-based controls, robotic systems, safety guarding, emergency stops, and interlocks to ensure safe, reliable, and continuous operation. The machine is designed for a capacity of 180 sachets per minute and 6 cartons per minute.
