Cup-
Stacking

For stable processes in the Sleevings process

Cup stacking from BERNING

In modern cup machines, clean cup handling is crucial for the overall throughput of the line. BERNING develops automated solutions for Destacking and Stacking Cups that are precisely matched to the Sleeving and Shrink processes. Our systems ensure a continuous, trouble-free process – from precise separation of empty cups to orderly restacking after shrinking (process). They are reproducible, material-sensitive and fully synchronized with the main machine.

Whether thin-walled Plastic cups, different geometries or high cycle rates: Our Cup stack is designed in such a way that it can be flexibly integrated into existing systems while ensuring maximum process stability.

Why cup stacking from BERNING

Cup processes place special demands on cycle accuracy, material protection and synchronization. The cup stacking systems from BERNING ensure that denesting, sleeving, Shrinking (process) and re-stacking function as a closed process. Each cup is separated in a controlled manner, safely guided and precisely aligned – from the first contact to transfer to further processing.

The result is clean stacks, reproducible processes and a solution that can be flexibly adapted to different formats, materials and line speeds.

10 important features of the Cup denester and stacker

These functions make all the difference when Cups need to be processed automatically, gently and in Cycles / Beats (timing) of the line:

  1. Automatic destacking of cups
    The system separates the cups precisely and reliably from the stack and is therefore perfect for continuous machine feeding.
  2. Optimum integration into the sleeving machine
    The destacked cups are transferred precisely to the feeding conveyor of the sleeving machine, where they are aligned reliably.
  3. High process stability
    The automated Separation prevents tilting and double drops.
  4. Gentle and safe cup handling
    Special separating systems enable gentle denesting without damaging the material.
  5. Synchronization with Sleeve and Shrink processes
    Thanks to the coordinated control system, the denester, sleeve machine and shrink system run perfectly in Cycles / Beat (timing).
  6. Automatic stacking after the process
    After sleeving and Shrinking (process), the cups are aligned and stacked neatly.
  7. Ready for further processing
    The finished stacks can be transferred directly to downstream Packaging or handling systems.
  8. Time and cost savings
    The fully automated process reduces manual effort, increases production speed and minimizes downtimes.
  9. Adaptable to different cup formats
    Regardless of whether different diameters, heights or materials are involved – the system can be flexibly adapted to customer requirements.
  10. Robust and maintenance-friendly design
    The industrial-grade components, easy accessibility and modular design ensure a long service life and low maintenance costs.
