Users of the Integrated Automation Systems AutoRack1 can rack and un-rack from horizontal
and vertical lines anywhere in the operation. Users will be able to rack and un-rack gently and consistently at a rate of more than 2,500 units per shift, according to the company. On horizontal lines, the AutoRack1 indexer can be extended after racking so units can be cooled, gas-filled and closed, achieving one-piece flow. AutoRack1 reduces handling damage, thanks to a rack design that makes it nearly impossible to scratch glass in combination with the company’s automated process that consistently and gently racks and un-racks glass.
