Kita Machine For Cotton Balls

KITA Machine For cotton balls are designed for high production capacity of various sizes of cotton balls, driven by servo motor with PLC control. The machine counts the number of balls according to the pack size and transfers them to the packing station.

METHOD OF OPERATION
Slivers are routed to the machine from the can or directly from the card. The slivers on up to 10 lanes are separated to the length corresponding to the respective ball weight. They are then, rolled by forming channels and are transported to the feed hoppers (delivery chutes).

The size of cotton balls may vary for the same weight due to "hard" or "soft" forming. The size of forming channels should be selected according to the ball sizes and we can also manufacture the special forming devices on the channel for super soft balls as an option.

CONVEYOR
Inclined conveyor allows the packing location to be in higher level so that the workers can exchange the bags in a comfortable position.

PACKING
Due to high production capacity, balls are delivered into two delivery chutes which are attached in front of the machine. The two chutes are equipped with a diverter which is actuated upon reaching the present count by a rotary air-cylinder. This permits a new bag to be filling while removing the full bag. The counter in the main control box can control the desired quantity for balls to be filled into the bags properly.

PRODUCTION CAPACITY
Depending on the ball weight and size, up to 3,000balls per minute
