Fully Automatic Cotton Inserter Machine
Fully Automatic Cotton Inserter Machine
Automatic cotton inserter designed for pharmaceutical, industrial, chemical and food industries. It cuts medical cotton from a continuous roll and inserts a measured plug into each bottle. Compatible with round, oblate, square and flat-square bottles. Can operate independently or inline with other equipment such as bottle unscrambler, counting machine, capping machine and labeling machine.
Introduction
This cotton inserting machine is a kind of equipment suitable for pharmaceutical, industrial, chemical, food and other industries, which can be used to insert cotton. This machine can be used independently, or with other supporting equipment to form linkage production line, such as bottle unscrambler, tablet/capsule counting machine, capping machine, sealing and labeling machine, etc.
The product uses the photoelectric sensing principle to cut and insert, and can monitor and set all the running data in real time. The bottle blocking cylinder on the bottle conveying mechanism of the machine will block the bottle transmitted by the upper equipment at the filling position until the bottle mouth to align with the cutting mechanism. The stepping motor drives the cotton feeding mechanism, pulls the medical cotton from the cotton bag, cuts the cotton and loads it into the bottle, and then the bottle conveyor belt transfers the bottle that has loaded cotton to the next equipment, and at the same time, waiting the next new empty bottle moving to this equipment.
The body of the machine is made of high-quality stainless steel, with compact size, simple structure, beautiful shape and easy maintenance.
