FULLY AUTOMATIC PROCESSING OF SILICONE TUBES
By



With a customer-specific special machine, Metzner provides a fully automatic solution for safe and material-friendly feeding of elastic silicone tubes and for cutting to length, winding, labelling and depositing. All tubes are cut to a total length of 2000 mm. A special laser knife procedure allows the machine to guarantee high length accuracy – even at high feed rates. For further processing in production, the cut tubes are each wound onto a reel. This process takes place directly in the machine. For identification and quality control, all silicone tubes are then provided with a barcode label containing all relevant production information. This label is automatically scanned and stored in the IT system after application to the coil of tubes. This permits continuous production monitoring and allocation. Metzner gripper systems then remove the wound and labelled reel and place it on a conveyor belt, which automatically transports the tubes for further processing.
