RL Series – R Series rotary lidding machine
The RL Series lidder is a compact footprint, hygienic, cantilevered design, press fit lidding machine for the application of stackable lids to a range of trays and pots. Based on the highly successful R Series denester-placer, the RL series lidder has an integral transport belt with product arresting/policing device, four station pick and place head and compression belt for securing the lid in position. Specified to handle a range of different pots and trays, the RL series lidder is designed with flexibility and hygiene in mind. Product is separated from the main mechanical, electrical and pneumatic components which are located behind the main frame, with only the product path in front. An angled plate under the transport belt guides any debris to the front of the machine for easy removal. Equipped with a password protected large screen HMI for downloading new product settings and configuring machine settings, the RL series is operator friendly UK designed and manufactured in stainless steel (optional washdown spec) the RL series lidder is equipped with our robust but lightweight factory set format change masks for new product sizes, and is designed to be changed in minutes by semi-skilled operators.

Lidding of sustainable card tubs.
When asked if we could automatically lid card tubs our standard solution was the gentle rotary action RL lidder.
The RL inline lidder picks and places card lids onto card tubs transported on the integral product transport belt at up to 60/min, then presses the lids onto the tubs using the adjustable height compression belt. The same machine is then changed over in minutes to handle a range of plastic tubs and lids. This solution replaced two operators and increased line output.
