New RIMA Indexing Stacker Offers a Triple Threat of Quality, Speed and Economy
RIMA System is offering the new RS 34 indexing web press stacker, a mid-range full press-speed stacker capable of running at speeds in excess of 90,000 units/hour.
A Little Stacking History
There are currently three stack-building techniques—single-stage, multi-stage and indexing.
With the original single-stage stacking approach (originated by RIMA in the 1970s), products drop from the top of the stacker to one set of stacking “forks" and then into the bottom of the stacker and out.
