Computype, in partnership with Nautilus Systems, launched the Flexible Tube and Vial Feeder (Flex TVF), a system for automatic downstream tube and vial feeding that increases efficiency.
The system separates tubes or vials from a bulk hopper and feeds them into an automated labeling device, ensuring each piece exiting the system is feeding in the correct orientation.
With a changeover of one mechanical component and a few settings, the Flex TVF adjusts to accommodate tubes and vials from 6- to 14-mm diameter and up to 96-mm long. It is compatible with the Nautilus PR100i with Tube Pro Accessory, creating a complete tube-and vial-labeling system. Its high feed rate (up to 40 parts per minute) eliminates the need for both manual operation and use of a bulk storage hopper.
