Fully Automatic Tool Change for Robotic Top Loaders

The new generation of ELEMATIC^® 6000 F Series high speed Top Loaders offer a new

interface which adds huge flexibility to these high-tech modules.

As an option, Paal adds a tool-magazine to the Top Loaders 6000 F Series. Tools for

the different formats have their “home-base” in this magazine.

For a size change, the robot would automatically “park” the current tool in the

magazine, automatically pick up the new tool, then go back into full operation mode.

< This feature guarantees fast and quick change over as well as a safe storage of tools.

< No tool has to be carried manually – a big physical help for the operators.

< All electrical, mechanical, and other power supplies are connected fully automatic.

< Handling mistakes of the operators are not possible, as there is zero handling.

Paal offers this option for all ELEMATIC^® 6000 F-6 top Loaders with 6 axis.

Claus Paal is convinced: “This innovative development sets a milestone in the world of

packaging. This interface means a new generation in Top Loading, giving Paal a

huge advantage in comparison to conventional Top Loading modules.
