High-speed rotary joints for continuous bottle and packaging labeling.
Explore Engineering SolutionsKey Engineering Advantages
Fluidic Integration
Combined electrical and fluidic/pneumatic rotary joints.
Fieldbus Support
Fast industrial ethernet for precise timing and control.
High Reliability
Extended lifetime for 24/7 continuous operation lines.
High-speed rotary labeling machines apply labels to bottles, jars, and packages at rates of tens of thousands of units per hour. The central rotating carousel must coordinate multiple axes (such as bottle plates driven by individual servomotors), requiring a robust electrical slip ring capable of transferring power, real-time control networks, and pneumatic vacuum lines.
Critical Demands in Labeling Operations
- High-Speed Network Integration
Transferring sensitive motion control signals (e.g., SERCOS III, EtherCAT, Profinet) to rotating servo drives without packet drops. - Hybrid Cable Support
Seamless handling of specialized cables (such as Schneider/Elau hybrid cables) containing both power and communication wires. - Vacuum & Air Integration
Routing pneumatic lines for vacuum-assisted label pick-up and application.
Specialized Through-Bore & Ruggedized Custom Solutions
- Hybrid Cable Compatibility
Custom inner shields and connectors pre-configured for Schneider/Elau hybrid cables. - Integrated Pneumatic Unions
Combined electrical slip rings with fluidic rotary joints for vacuum or air supply (up to 10 bar). - Robust IP65 Enclosure
Stainless steel housings that withstand bottle breakage, moisture, and cleaning chemicals. - Long Operating Lifespan
Engineered with multi-fiber brush technology to achieve over 100 million rotations, minimizing production line stoppages.
