Destacking Systems
Atlas destackers provide continuous destacking with no interruption of the press stroke between stacks. As a stack of blanks gets close to depletion, the remaining blanks are supported by carriage mounted forks that allow the lift table to reposition and queue the next stack underneath the destack head, which is then ready for immediate destacking when the outgoing stack is depleted.

Atlas has designed a destacker fanner magnet unit that utilizes a simple fixed magnet yet allows the magnetic field to be broken if you need to pull the fanner unit away from a stack of blanks during production.

Manual or fully programmable gage stations with automatic 2-axis adjustment of the crowders are available. This optional feature allows changeover in seconds between blank sizes, blank position or even between single and double-unattached modes. It also assures consistent, tight-tolerance positioning for accurate press loading.

In most transfer press applications, the Atlas gage station configuration eliminates the need for a press loader since the destacker is designed to interface with the transfer press automation for pick up from the gage station by the transfer fingers or crossbar vacuum cups.
