AUTOMATED MATERIAL HANDLING & PACKING SYSTEMS EFFICIENTLY MOVE & PACK PRODUCTS
The need for smarter, safer and automated systems for handling and packing products continues to evolve. SDC tackles this growing industry concern by designing and building fully automated, custom packing and material handling machines that meet and exceed safety regulations and production requirements. Our technical capabilities and expertise include:
Automatic Packing Equipment
Combines machinery and materials to efficiently and quickly group and pack products.
Palletizing and Stacking Systems
Quickly load and stack products on pallets for faster, more cost-effective shipping.
Tray Handling Systems
Automatically unload or load trays of parts and accurately track them throughout the automated system
Pick-and-Place Systems
Pick-and-place systems quickly take products from one location to another with high accuracy.
Shuttle Systems
Automatic storage and retrieval systems that deliver products on track.
Accumulation Conveyor Systems
Custom, versatile systems to ensure a continuous supply of product.
CUSTOM, INTEGRATED PACKING & MATERIAL HANDLING SOLUTIONS
Automated packing and material handling machines can improve efficiency by increasing output, controlling costs, and maximizing productivity. Our custom engineered automatic packing and material handling systems are often a combination of many different technologies integrated to one system, including parts handling robots, conveyors, shuttles, escapements, traying systems, and many other automated parts and material handling technologies.
Proprietary Technology SDC FlexFeeding
Through years of experience with designing and building automated material handling machines, SDC developed a proprietary FlexFeeding system. Our FlexFeeding system takes bulk fed components and uses a combination of vision guided robotics and conveyor systems to quickly and accurately execute machine pick-and-place functions.
A key advantage of our proprietary Flex Feeder design is that the system is flexible in all aspects. The system can be adapted and programmed to fit fast or slow applications, big or small parts, any part color, and many other part variations that are traditionally difficult to automatically feed.
