GEA POWERSORT 6000
GEA PowerSort
GEA PowerSort 6000 is an innovative separation and sorting system that can be customized to meet customer requirements through GEA’s modular design. It features a combined lane system and package rejector for end-of-line applications. Its purpose is to automatically sort and reject defective food packages produced by thermoforming packaging machines. PowerSort can be controlled via GEA SmartControl HMI and is highly integrated with GEA’s optimized Thermoformer, facilitating maintenance and servicing.
Maximum Control, Maximum Integration, Minimal Fuss.
PowerSort is an innovative separating and sorting system which – thanks to GEA’s modular design – can be configured exactly to customer requirements. This combined lane converger and package rejector features a single pack, pick-and-place system and multi-lane converging system for end-of-line applications. Its purpose is to automatically sort ‘good’ food packages produced by thermoforming packaging machines from ‘bad’ ones. Any empty or defective packages can be rejected in a controlled way with high reliability and efficiency. PowerSort can be controlled by the GEA SmartControl HMI.
In line with the GEA One Line concept it is highly integrated – both mechanically and electrically – with our new optimized GEA thermoformer. Sharing common parts with the thermoformer and other automation equipment – such as the frame or the belt design – makes servicing quicker, easier and more cost effective.
