Jun 25, 2007 Robotic SUBTA (Stand Up Bottle Take Away) enables in-line automated PET bottle handling and unloading for coating, leak checking, case packing, and bulk palletizing. For larger mold machines, it uses FANUC M-6iB or M-16iB robot. System grabs and sets bottles on conveyor standing up, acting as takeaway unit. With ability to handle any mold configuration (single/double row), product uses angled and/or tapered bottles and includes operator pendant for recipe adjustments and error reporting.
