Universal Robina Corporation (URC) is a Philippine multinational with an established market especially in South east Asia in the Food & Beverage industry. URC PHILIPPINES requested a solution to produce “new” water bottles for mass consumption, having specific needs:

  1. Line speed of 50,000 bph – labelling machine speed of 55,000 bph
  2. Processing of an “ExtraLight” bottle in 350 ml and 500 ml sizes, produced blow moulding machine.

The solution that we proposed and installed is a ROLLMATIC with brushless motorised plate belt, reel-holders, also servo-driven, dedicated brushless HS glue roller and, obviously, automatic joiner.

In addition, a special infeed solution with drive-break curve, long feed-screw and additional starwheel has also been designed and implemented for the correct infeed of soft bottles into the machine.

The low consistency of the bottles was a great preoccupation for the success of the project.  However, with the right solutions described above, corrected and adapted during the FAT and the machine has been operating for over a year in three shifts with great customer satisfaction.
