The RPM TL3 Case Packer and Carton Loader Packing Wrapped Hamburgers Into Cartons

The washdown RPM carton loader collates wrapped hamburgers and packs them into topload cartons.

The RPM TL3 small-footprint carton loader is used in many consumer goods applications, including frozen food, pharmaceuticals, beverage, produce, and CBD. In this application the high-performance machine is packing various sizes of wrapped sandwiched into topload cartons, achieving speeds of up to 140 products per minute.

The product handling infeed system accepts a single stream of randomly spaced products. It uses a separate infeed conveyor to inspects and reject bad wraps. Products are then transferred into a servo-driven collator that creates groups of products to be picked. Three-flap, top load cartons are automatically positioned for loading. The proprietary RPM robot, controlled by a Rockwell controls package, robot picks up the products and places them into the cartons or trays.

Notable feature:

This machine’s stainless steel construction accommodates washdown applications. The frame is constructed with round spacers between joints to reduce contamination.
