例COVID-19开始加强的U.S.A. in early spring, a diagnostics manufacturer reached out to ESS Technologies—a provider of complete packaging line design, manufacture, and integration—to build two identical filling systems with automated cap torque for diagnostics vials to be used in manufacturing COVID-19 test kits. The system needed to be fast and capable of filling up to 120 vials per minute. ESS introduces its FC Series Flexible Filler/Capper for vials and small bottles.

灵活的填充/瓶装仪以半自动和全自动配置提供,旨在使用圆形的冰球输送机系统将小瓶或小瓶运送到内联填充系统。正时螺钉驱动器的目的是将六个小瓶放在六个跳水喷嘴组件下方,并在其中分配精确的诊断试剂。使用Fanuc Scara机器人和盖瓶喂食器将盖放置自动化。然后,应该将三个最终扭矩站施加到盖上。FC60型号旨在处理每分钟多达60个小瓶,而FC120型号则每分钟填充120个小瓶。用于小瓶和小瓶的柔性填充剂/瓶盖使用Allen Bradley PLC控件和6英寸颜色触摸屏HMI,以便于操作。可选的10英寸HMI可用。
