Our RF16 robot is specially designed for handling barrel-shaped cheeses. Its elevated treatment station can process cheeses such as Cheddar, Grana/Parmesan, Cantal, etc.
Despite its unique design made to accommodate the height of barrel-shaped cheeses, most of its modules are shared with the RF11 and RF13 models.
Care
- Brushes and plate can be removed without the use of special tools
- Large choice of brushes available
- Brine tank level detection system
- A LED spotlight provides good light. It can be viewed and accessed directly from the dialogue screen
- Remote brine tank selection controls for greater accessibility
Grab module
- Optimal pick-up of cheese wheels through efficient positional detection of the plate
- Belt can be removed without special tools in less than one minute
- Movement of all moving parts carried out using maintenance-free, non-stretch belts
- Strong plastic lift and table runners, limiting wear and reducing maintenance costs
Guide and movement system
- The robot features a contactless guiding system. It moves along the aisle, automatically correcting its course
- The robot uses the existing infrastructure and is automatically fixed on the uprights of the shelves
- Comes with a portable remote control to allow operators to position themselves at the best viewing angle. The motorised steering and greater than 180° steering angle allow for accurate and effortless movement
Turning
- The kinematics of the turning module have been completely redesigned. Movements are now smoother. The cheese is held better in the turner’s stirrups
- This new design also compacts the movement and saves space in the chassis
Offest programme
- The offset function is now possible with moulds arranged one behind another.
- An area above the chassis can be used for the temporary storage of a cheese.
- This means the grab module can free space on the rear board of another level.
Construction and design
- The turning system is specifically sized to handle cheddar without damaging the product.
- Chassis made from mechanically welded stainless steel 1.4301.
- Hygienic: treatment station with smooth welding easily accessible.
The sloping surface enable optimum run-off of smear liquid and rising water. - Strong, rugged construction.
