Sensitive handling for hygienic disposables

Nonwoven disposable hygiene products are lightweight, compressible and as a consequence sensitive. In addition, their dimensions vary within certain tolerances and traditional palletizing methods can often result in unstable stacks.

To resolve these issues, Optima is introducing the new RTP 25 palletizer specifically for nonwoven disposables.

It has a motor-driven gripper equipped with angled edges at the bottom which increases gripping security and operating speed. The angled edges allow a significant reduction of the gripping force, ensuring that the sensitive nonwoven products can retain their shape.

Simultaneously, the device allows the use of a faster robot and the vertically moving frame is particularly suitable for lightweight disposable hygiene products, since it firmly holds the compact and stable stack formations in place.
