 ST
550 Universal Friction Feeder® Packaging operations pursuing
greater productivity through automation require dependable feeding
equipment that's simple yet flexible to meet changing needs.
Introducing
the ST 550 Universal Friction Feeder® and the next generation
of high performance feeding. At the core of the ST 550 is
our patented Differential Friction Technology™ that ensures
package integrity through precision product separation and
singulation. Just as simple as it is accurate, the ST 550
boasts a 24-inch (60.96 cm) capacity hopper which reduces
reloading time. As for setup, minimal adjustments are necessary
and they're all done without tools. And with its modular design,
the ST 550, when necessary, is even quick and easy to maintain.
In addition
to its innovative mechanical design, the ST 550 is IQuipped™
with a revolutionary intelligent system controller. This powerful
automation control center features an embedded microprocessor
that provides an information management system and host communications
via its standard RS-232 interface.
Designed
for continuous use in industrial environments, the ST 550
is built with a durable stainless steel enclosure and precision
manufactured components. Many hardware and software options
are available for your specific integration and application
requirements. |
