Sorter for the food industry RD-SS-450Pro

for the pharmaceutical industryindustrialcolor

Product overview
Full servo sachet sorter & counter designed to solve layout challenges such as cross-floor production and limited space between primary and secondary packaging lines. The automated system collects, arranges, separates, and counts unordered items using servo control for accurate, smooth transfer to cartoning machines. It supports flexible output orientations (horizontal, vertical or stacked) to integrate with downstream cartoning operations.

Key capabilities

• Automated collecting, orienting, separating and counting of unordered sachets, pouches and blister cards
• Throughput up to 450 packs (bags/sachets) per minute
• Multi-axis servo motion control with 11 direct-drive servo motors for synchronized roller and axis movement
• Flexible discharge modes: horizontal transfer, vertical orientation, batch stacking
• Real-time photoelectric detection feedback; optional machine vision integration for orientation correction
• Dust-proof and anti-static rollers to prevent bag slippage
• Designed to minimize noise, wear and product deformation; low-pressure handling and gentle accumulation

How it works
The system receives random-orientation output from upstream equipment into a wide-mouth, low-incline accumulation hopper. A slow-running belt and servo-controlled feeding mechanism meter bags into the sorting area. High-speed roller platforms with coordinated servo speed/direction differences separate, reorient and space items. A servo-driven synchronous belt with encoder feedback enforces precise spacing; photoelectric sensors perform high-speed non-contact counting. Outputs are discharged via independently controlled servo axes for precise synchronization with cartoners or other downstream machines.

Main features and operational benefits

• Eleven high-performance servo motors + centralized motion controller ensure precise synchronization and smooth, fully automated alignment
• Multi-station processing: material feeding, conveying, aligning, separating with motion control and photoelectric detection
• Very low double-bagging / stacking probability (stated below 0.009% under described conditions)
• Dynamic speed matching across zones: slow accumulation to protect products, variable mid-range sorting speed, high-precision counting and discharge zones
• Integration-ready: upstream connectivity via level sensors and I/O; downstream synchronization via servo following and industrial fieldbuses (examples cited: EtherCAT, PROFINET)
• Data continuity: count data, batch info and production status can be transmitted to downstream machines or MES platforms for traceability

Typical applications

• Pharmaceutical: blister cards, sachets with powders/granules — separation, counting and feeding into automatic cartoners
• Food: seasoning packets, sauce sachets, snack pouches for multi-pack cartons or case packing
• Personal care & cosmetics: face mask sachets, sample sachets, wet wipe packs requiring gentle handling
• Medical & industrial: sterile pouches, diagnostic kits and small industrial packets requiring high accuracy and traceability
