Fast, repeatable changeover feature offers multiple enhancements. Repeatability – rail positions are recipe-driven and locked in place to within +/- 1/32″ Flexibility – ability to place lanes where desired as opposed to centerline or fixed side adjustments and more customer options for generating product-specific recipes Durability – infeed rail’s holding force can withstand high product pressure Ergonomics – minimizing manual adjustments maximizes efficiency and promotes safety in the work environment
TriVex RLi is designed to erect, load and seal cases in one compact machine. With complete integration comes less product handling, less case handling and less maintenance within its compact footprint. The TriVex RL & RLi perform efficiently and precisely to achieve the highest level of productivity. Automated infeeds collate products and position them for loading. Accurate case and flap control options ensure that cases are properly prepared for loading and that they smoothly enter and exit the loader. Customized options are added to match your case patterns and speeds.

Case Handling

Opposing vacuum cups drive the case open when corrugate slots interlock or the manufacturer’s glue joint tacks panels together.

Case Loading

TriVex’s multi-axis servo loader can be configured to meet your needs.
  • Vacuum
  • Mechanical grippers
  • Pattern rotate and load
  • Product spreading or shingling

Case Closing

Case flights positively square the case. Pivoting flap folders asure that flaps fold at the score line. Tape or glue sealing is available.

Vertical Pack – Bags and pouches standing in the case TriVex RL & RLi vertical pack solutions are used for products that need to be upright through distribution or for retail ready display packs. Solutions include pattern tipping, vane collation, and Delta robot feeding.
  • Product control for pillow bags to standup pouches
  • Products facing the major or minor panels of the case
  • Excellent machine accessibility
  • Simple changeover
  • Small footprint

TriVex RL – Delta III uses parallel-axis robot technology. High speed multi-axis motions allow the Delta III loader to sense and pick moving product, often eliminating the need for special product handling on the infeed or the need to stage product before picking. The location and orientation of each product loaded into the case or tray is also programmable providing a high level of flexibility.
