SYNCROCAP, the heart of innovation

SYNCROCAP from Nortan represents a significant step forward for the whole sector

Thanks to an innovative mechatronic project (F.E.D.S. Technology), the new SYNCROCAP distributor can automatically adapt to the different capsules to be processed, thus reducing the format change times up to 80% and the imperfections due to human intervention.

Compared to standard capsule distributors, the new SYNCROCAP represents a significant step forward for the whole sector. Each component has been completely rethought and redesigned around the following objectives:

• Processing optimization

• Increase in reliability

• Reduction and simplification of maintenance

• Minimization of the format change times for operators.

The main heart of the innovation is the fully electronic separation and distribution group, where a new proprietary mechatronic technology (patent pending) called F.E.D.S. Technology (Fully Electronic Distribution System) has been implemented. This leads to a reduction in setting and format change times by the operator of about 80% and to the complete elimination of errors and problems that may arise due to rough adjustments. Furthermore, thanks to a series of algorithms that encompass all Nortan experience, all mechanical devices have been eliminated and the concept of “electronic cam” has been introduced, which allows to automatically adapt the timing and parameters of the various components based on the type of capsule in work. The 40% reduction in details and the optimization of production processes has led to a significant increase in reliability.
