Standard-Knapp's Pikmore Continuous Motion Uncaser safely removes empty glass bottles
Standard-Knapp introduces the PikMore Uncaser, a continuous motion machine ideal for the wine and beverage industries.  A sister machine to the PakMore case packer the PikMore works in reverse to remove empty glass bottles from their cases.  The PikMore allows for expedited refilling and packaging down the process line by operating at a rate of 70 cases per minute.While the PakMore’s gripper heads pick up bottles and safely lower them into the cases, the Uncaser’s gripper heads revolve around a center carousel to quickly and gently lift the empty glass bottles from their cases.  Designed to maximize efficiency while also minimizing bottle damage, the PikMore gently places the bottles on the conveyer as they leave the machine.
