Mechanic & Electrical installation.
Swire Coca Cola.
We supplied parts to convert the top covers for the vacuum lowerator and the air conveyor to an automatic pneumatically operated for four position height adjustment.
The can size selection for both the VTU’s are manual via the hand wheel. New support brackets were added to the covers on the vacuum lowerator to allow for pneumatic cylinders to be fitted for automated height adjustment.
The automatic systems supplied with pneumatic control valves and pneumatic tubing for the distribution of air to the cylinders on the line. The existing side guide rails were reused and adjusted for the new can heights.
