Condition: excellent (used), Year of construction: 2024, operating hours: 50 h, Lamella Production Machine The automatic acoustic panel stapler is equipped with an advanced three-axis NC control system, providing exceptional precision and flexibility in the manufacturing process. Below are the detailed advantages of each axis: 1. X-Axis: Precise Stapler Positioning Along the Horizontal Axis - The X-axis ensures accurate horizontal positioning of the staplers along the panel. This guarantees that staples are precisely applied at designated points, ensuring consistent stitching quality across the entire length of the panel, regardless of its size. 2. Y-Axis: Vertical Movement - The Y-axis allows vertical movement of the stapler, enabling stapling at various locations on the panel, regardless of its dimensions or shape. This enables the stapler to work with non-standard sized panels while maintaining full accuracy. 3. Z-Axis: Depth and Stapling Force Control - The Z-axis controls the depth and force with which the staples are driven into the panel. This allows the process to be precisely adjusted according to the thickness and hardness of the acoustic panel material. As a result, staples are embedded with optimal strength, ensuring the durability and aesthetics of the finished product while minimizing the risk of material damage. ### Automatic Changeover Automatic changeover is a key feature that significantly enhances production efficiency. With this function: - Changeover of the X, Y, and Z axes is fully automatic. ### Production Process Optimization Integration with production management systems such as MES (Manufacturing Execution System) and ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) enables: Rodpfoy Sw I Nox Abhsw 1. Full Control Over the Manufacturing Process: - Thanks to MES and ERP integration, every stage of production can be fully monitored and managed. 2. Optimization of Media and Material Consumption: 3. Optimization of Production Plans: ### Significant Relief for Operators Automation of the acoustic panel stapling process directly reduces manual workload: - Elimination of manual control requirements - Increased work efficiency ### Capability to Develop Algorithms for Media Demand Analysis Thanks to advanced integration with manufacturing management systems, the stapler allows for the creation of sophisticated algorithms to analyze production media demand: 1. Media Demand Analysis: 2. Adapting Production to Variable Conditions: ### OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) Analysis The stapler also facilitates advanced OEE analysis, a key performance indicator in production operations: 1. Comprehensive Production Monitoring: 2. Automatic OEE Calculation: - The MES system automatically calculates the OEE value based on collected data, allowing immediate assessment of the stapler’s operational efficiency. This tool enables rapid identification of areas requiring optimization, such as downtime reduction, product quality improvement, or machine performance enhancement. 3. Early Detection of Problematic Areas: 4. Optimization of Production Plans: ### TPM (Total Productive Maintenance) and Automated Condition Monitoring The stapler also supports the implementation of TPM philosophy, focusing on maximizing machine efficiency and reliability...

Condition: ready for operation (used), Year of construction: 2019, HEUFT ONE: Metal Detection and Code Verification Conveyor System Model Heuft HBBNXZ72 YOM 2019 High sensitivity to ferrous and non-ferrous metals Stainless Steel Construction Full Container Checking System (A4) The devices of the new HEUFT ONE series set new standards in terms of detection accuracy, operational reliability and price / performance ratio during an in-line quality inspection in a confined space, and celebrated their world premiere at interpack. The first metal detector and an inspection system for markings up to HEUFT standards can be experienced live at the trade fair. ONE for all: the new products make an affordable introduction to HEUFT cutting edge technology as particularly compact stand-alone devices which are extremely easy to integrate into packaging lines. They combine innovative detection technologies with customised hardware and software and proven procedures for a highly precise product tracking, inspection and fault rejection. Thus the compact complete solutions remove contaminated products and incorrectly marked packaging accurately; food safety has priority! The HEUFT ONE for detecting metal achieves maximum detection accuracy with unique evaluation procedures from the HEUFT development department: it even finds minute pieces of metal in filled food packaging reliably – almost unaffected by the product effect of saline or acidic products and the influence of metal packaging components. Even special ambient conditions such as a "metal free zone" are not necessary for the reliable operation of the compact stand-alone device. The first HEUFT metal detector complements the portfolio of sophisticated systems, which identify all types of foreign objects, with a slim entry-level solution. It is ideal for all those who only wish to find objects made of iron, steel, aluminium or stainless steel first and want to achieve a detection and rejection reliability up to HEUFT standards. The new HEUFT ONE for code verification, marking and dress inspection also provides this during the high-resolution complete examination of food packaging with in-house developed colour sensor camera technology and real-time image evaluation. It detects best before and expiry dates, barcodes and 2D codes, article and serial numbers, imprints and lettering which have been incorrectly applied and are inaccurate as regards content – and that independent of their respective position. The same also applies to deviating logos as well as non-brand colouring and design elements. Proven HEUFT procedures also ensure the accurate removal of incorrectly marked products in this case. Full traceability, clear information about shelf-life and digestibility as well as an attractive appearance at the point of sale are thus always guaranteed. Redpfx Abeyq Rkyjhjw The solid, extremely compact construction in accordance with the hygiene-optimised HEUFT CleanDesign also makes the new HEUFT ONE devices stand out. They are straightforward to integrate into existing packaging lines even where space is limited. The HEUFT ISI bus ensures minimum wiring with the open, flexible assembly directly above the conveyor. Dispensing with change parts makes easy brand changes without mechanical changeovers possible and the organised user interface, which has been reduced to the essentials, ensures error-free operation. This together with continuous monitoring brings the metal detection and code verification in line with HEUFT standards.
