High-Speed tabletop Pouch Opener with Allen Bradley Control Systems and Servo-Driven Closed-Loop Control.
 
Key Features:
 
Servo-motor drive with encoder feedback, enabling rapid acceleration and deceleration, consistent repeatability and minimal dwell time.
Allen-Bradley® control system (PLC + motion module) for full integration into automation lines, data logging, diagnostics and recipe-based changeover.
Compact clean-room compatible footprint: ideal for medical, pharmaceutical, electronics or small-batch packaging labs.
User-friendly foot-pedal or auto-cycle operation: operator chooses pace, or fully automated timed cycle.
High throughput mode: with motion optimization this unit reliably supports well above typical desktop units (legacy bench-top models run ~8-10 pouches per minute) — thanks to servo closed-loop control we achieve cycle times up to ~15-20+ pouches per minute depending on pouch size and material.
Changeover flexibility: adjustable magazine, supports a variety of pouch sizes and styles; optional air-assist for longer pouches.
Validatable and documentation-ready: full motion logs, cycle counts, error histories available for GMP/ISO environments.
 
Why Closed-Loop Servo Control Matters:
 
Traditional bench-top pouch openers often rely on pneumatic cylinders or simple open-loop drives which:
 
Lack precise feedback and thus suffer from variable cycle times, slower acceleration/deceleration, and longer dwell times.
Are less efficient and less responsive to changing loads or pouch types.
 
In contrast our servo-driven closed-loop system actively monitors position/speed/torque and corrects in real time—this enables shorter motion segments, tighter dwell windows and higher repeatability at high speed. 
 
As a result, our desktop pouch opener delivers significantly faster throughput.
 
And because the system is integrated via Allen-Bradley® motion/PLC architecture, you can plot cycle times, detect under-performing pouches, and optimize recipes—further improving OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness).
 
Typical Applications:
 
Laboratory or R&D packaging where speed, repeatability and clean-room compatibility are critical.
Medical device packaging, sterile pouches, electronics or semiconductors requiring high reliability and small footprint.
Pilot production, contract packaging, or clean-room bench loading stations where automation and speed pay off.
