OPERATING

SUPERSINCRO is a fully robotized weighing system for powders, granting accuracy, hygiene safety and consistent quality on the powder ingredients weighing for the food industry recipes.

SUPERSINCRO consists of a number of independent storage silos, each containing a different powder, placed in two rows over a modular structure, under which advance in sequence special metal containers fitted with automatically heat-formed bags, generated from tubular plastic film. Every module of the structure can host 10 standard silos (300 lt. capacity) that can be loaded by means of depression, by a vacuum pump or from the top of the silos, by gravity. As an option, for large use powders, one or more pneumatic transfer stations from big-bags into the silos can be installed. Each silo is fitted with an endless screw device, allowing precise and fast dispensing of the various ingredients. At each cycle the bag-suited containers, sat on moving trays, are stepper moved on a U route, below the silos which are positioned in two fronts: after every step, each Container is placed on the scale corresponding to the ingredient to be dispensed, until the end of the route and the completion of requested recipes.

An efficient suction and filtering system grants maximum safety and environmental hygiene. The operation of SUPERSINCRO is managed by Lawer dedicated Software.

The system is modular depending of the number on ingredients used and can be expanded and integrated with LAWER optional systems for assisted pre-weighed ingredients, for robotized management of boxes and pallets, etc.

SINGLE SCALE TECHNOLOGY

Unica HD  has been projected and patented for the automation of the powder and liquid ingredients weighing operations used in the food industry. The powder and liquid ingredients are stored in stainless steel silos  with a capacity of 50 l. and the products are dosed through stainless steel screws. The ingredients are dosed into buckets which are manually placed on the automatic weighing trolley equipped with an electronic scale. The weighing trolley automatically positions the buckets under the silo containing the ingredient to be dosed, then slides to the final position where the operator can collect the weighed recipe. The system is managed through a touch-screen computer on the main control panel. The PC stores all the production recipes therefore making it possible to select the recipes and to view the components. All the information can be password protected.

STORAGE SILOS

The storage silos in stainless steel AISI 304  are independent and removable. Each silo is equipped with independent and removable top covers and with removable screw covers.

WEIGHING SCALE

The scale, capacity 30 kg and accuracy 1 gr.

EFFICIENT FILTERING SYSTEM

An efficient filtering system ensures perfect machine cleaning during the automatic weighing and manual refilling operations by capturing volatile powder and conveying it to the filters installed on the machine.

TOUCH SCREEN PANEL AND PC

The recipe selection is on the touch screen panel, all weight operation carried out by UNICA HD are save and made available for a perfect traceability. Moreover your know-how can be protected with the use of an encrypted operative software.

Accessing a protected area, you will be able to check your production process, monitor and verify the daily, monthly production.

AUTOMATIC BUCKETS LOADING/UNLOADING SYSTEM

UNICA HD can be equipped, in optional, with an automatic buckets loading/unloading system, 4 buckets with 4 different recipes can be prepare automatically.

OPERATING

UNICA SUPER is a fully robotized weighing system for powder  ingredients, guaranteeing an optimum qualitative consistency on recipe preparation. The system is modular in design and depending of the number of ingredients to be used.

UNICA SUPER consists of a number of independent storage silos, each for storing a different ingredient, these are installed in line on a modular structure. A weighing trolley incorporating the electronic weigh scales is automatically transported to the correct silo position. Each module of the structure can accommodate up to 10 standard silos (cap.150 liters) or five double silos (300 liters) which are loaded by means of a vacuum system. The maximum number of silos is 120. The bottom section of each silo is equipped with an efficient combined screw / vibration dispensing device (Lawer© Patented) which allows to dispense rapidly and accurately the powder ingredients. The buckets loading and unloading takes place automatically. An efficient suction/filtering device guarantees the maximum safety of use and a clean working environment. UNICA SUPER operates by means of a dedicated Lawer© software.
