A roll former that runs 60 feet a minute still needs someone to catch every panel. The RX-APS stacker takes that job. Panels ride out on rollers, a photo eye trips the pneumatic arms, and each sheet drops about four inches onto a square stack. One operator runs the line, and the painted face never drags across the panel below it.
Hand-stacking is where painted panels get scuffed. Two people pull a 30-foot sheet off the run-out, it bows, and it slides across the one underneath. On the RX-APS, each panel travels on rollers and side guides, never on the panel below, until it is fully out and square over the stack. The crew member who used to catch panels can band bundles, load trucks, or run a second machine.
When the cut panel clears the photo eye, the pneumatic stacker arms swing open and release it. The drop is about four inches, short enough that the panel lands flat and stays where it falls. Every sheet ends up in the same place, so bundles come off square, band cleanly, and ship without edge damage.
The discharge table is powered up and down, so it lowers as the stack grows and the drop stays short from the first panel to the last. It also powers in and out, bringing the finished bundle to where a forklift can reach it. Nobody has to climb onto the frame or slide a bundle by hand.
Stackers are available in 20-foot (6-meter) and 40-foot (12-meter) configurations. The RX-APS pairs with any Roll Worx panel line and can be added to a roll former you already own. Send us your exit height, panel width, and longest cut, and we will size the stacker to match.
