Cup denester for bakery production

Effortlessly enhance efficiency in bakery production lines by streamlining the process of picking and placing various containers, enabling seamless integration with existing systems for consistent, high-speed output.

Efficiently Denests and Places Bakery Containers

The DSM, NC, NCR, and DSG denester systems from GEA offer tailored solutions for a range of bakery and packaging needs. These systems excel in automating the pick-and-place tasks for paper cups, aluminum foils, and plastic containers, which streamline operations in cake production lines. The DSM model is highly adaptable, featuring interchangeable feeders to handle varying sizes of containers. The NC model is ideal for precision in denesting small and medium paper cups into indented trays, equipped with GEA’s patented airblow system for separating cups efficiently. Meanwhile, the NCR model caters to high-speed applications, effectively handling special cups like tulip or mini panettone types, thanks to its rotating head and brushless motorization. The DSG is specifically engineered for oversized paper cups, utilizing dual suction cup units for improved handling. These systems integrate seamlessly into existing production lines and offer options for horizontal tracking and customizable feeders, ensuring adaptability to specific production requirements. Designed with reliability in mind, they reduce handling time and improve throughput, making them indispensable for high-capacity bakeries and food processing companies.
