Automatic Hanging Line

FCHL LS

Top and PCS Exclusive Features

  • Automatic positioning of long looped products on the smo- ke stick at high throughput rates
  • Efficiency through reduced workforce at the filling line in combination with robot-controlled smoke trolley loading system
  • Optimum utilization of smoking and cooking plant capacity

Why work with FCHL LS?

The FCHL LS Automatic Hanging Line works reliably and continuously linked directly to FCA 160 double-clippers and the robot-controlled, fully-automatic smoke trolley loading system ASL-R (optional). Looped products in the calibre range 38 to 100 mm are positioned highly efficient on the smoke stick – continuously, accurately and in a high positioning rate. The precise positioning allows a higher loading density.

Function and operation

  • The FCHL LS is connected mechanically and electrically to an FCA. The smoke sticks are automatically taken from the stick loader and brought to the loading position. While the portion is closed with clips and the loop is set, a special finger takes the looped product directly from the separating area of the double-clipper and positions it automatically on the smoke stick. When the stick is full, it is moved to the discharge buffer, while another empty stick is positioned for further loading. The loaded smoke stick is positioned into the smoke trolley by the ASL-R robot-controlled loading system or with a customer-supplied lifting device. Meanwhile, the production is running continuously.

Possible combinations

  • ASL-R
  • Maximum efficiency thanks to robot-controlled, fully-automatic discharge of filled sticks and positioning in the smoke trolley with the ASL-R at a rate of 6 sticks per minute. The combination of FCHL with ASL-R increases the output rate once again by up to 10 % with additional reduction of the manpower requirement by up to 40 %.
