RP3-Move

For more than 30 years, Duivestein has been developing various stacking machines tailored to customer requirements. With great pride, we have added a new stacking machine to the RP family. The RP3-Move automatic stacker is an RP3 stacker with the feature that it is easy to move. Thus, you can easily deploy the stacker at various production lines whenever you wish.

Functioning of the RP3 Stacking Machine

The stacker feeders work with vacuum technology. They can be placed in front of and/or behind practically every production machine. These include sawing, sanding, milling, edging, painting and all-rounders. Using various selection and expansion options, such as automatic bearings and cross transfer systems, a fully automatic production line is made possible.

RP3 Stacking machine use as stacker

Workpieces coming out of a production machine are transported through the conveyor and placed under the vacuum pad in such a way that it can grab the workpiece. When the workpiece is in place, the lifting column, will bring the two beams with the vacuum pad, down on top of the workpiece. The vacuum valve will then turn on and the workpiece will be sucked against the vacuum pad. When the vacuum's negative pressure is high enough, the lifting column with the vacuum pad will rise again, taking the workpiece with it. When the lifting column is completely at the top, the lifting column will move to the left in the direction of the deposit. Once there, the lifting column will stop and the vacuum pad will release the workpiece. After this, the lifting column will move to the right again and stop above the conveyor at a fixed set value. If there is a new workpiece under the vacuum pad, this cycle will be repeated and the workpiece will be placed next to the previous workpiece. The machine will thus form a layer of the workpieces. After each layer, a new layer is formed until one reaches the desired height of the stack. To strengthen the stack, the machine can stack offset, giving one a solid package.

In this case, the machine works in exactly the opposite direction. The parts are picked up from the take-out position or deposit position and deposited on the conveyor belt.

Investment in a RP3 stacker

The RP3 automatic stacker was developed with the idea of achieving a return on investment for you as quickly as possible. The payback time of an RP3 stacker is about one year. An additional advantage is that the machine is easy to install and program. Furthermore, the programming system is designed to be operated without any prior training. The competitive price and ease of use make it possible for anyone to automate the production process.
