  • Automatic End Cap Feeding

    A vibratory bowl feeds end caps to the assembly station.

  • Rotary Indexing Workstation

    Moves components between stations in a defined sequence.

  • Inspection and Sorting

    Checks configured production conditions and separates rejected parts. Inspection scope

    is agreed during project development.

  • Control System

    Allen-Bradley PLC and HMI, SMC pneumatic components, and clearly labelled electrical

    wiring support operation and maintenance.
