ASTRRA’s oneTouch automatic changeover system can handle all your rail and machine changeover adjustments.
Since 2008 ASTRRA has been revolutionizing packaging automation.
Based on industry standard wireless communications protocols, ASTRRA is a distributed control system which eliminates cumbersome and expensive point-to-point control wiring to a central PLC. Instead, only one inexpensive 24VDC bus is required along the length of the conveyor.
Once installed and aligned, setting up the conveyor for a new package requires nothing more than entering the package width or diameter in the system and rails will move to the new position.
