Sprue pickers are fitted atop of fixed platens and are used to remove the sprue from the mould after each cycle. This cylinder driven robot has an arm that can turn 90 degrees from left to right, with a gripper attachment. The robot is great value, compact, easy to install and operate.
Typically, the picker will rotate to the non-operator side of the machine and drop the sprue into a waiting granulator. When combined with a granulator, proportioning valve and hopper loader, this can be a straight forward and cost effective closed-loop recycling system.
