ADOS
The Automatic Drum Opening System (ADOS) allows you to open sealed drums using robotics. Increase efficiency, safety and reduce manual labor.




Automatic opening of drums
Does your industry work with sealed drums that need to be opened for further processing? Fluidor Equipment’s Automatic Drum Opening System (ADOS) opens your drums quickly, efficiently and safely.
The Automatic Drum Opening System is designed to safely and reliably open sealed drums using an advanced robotic arm. Depending on the drum input and your product, the system can process up to 120 drums per hour, ensuring a streamlined and consistent process.
Want to increase safety and reduce manual handling?
Integrate the Automatic Drum Opening System into your production process and benefit from improved efficiency and reduced labor costs.
How the ADOS works:
- The drum is clamped on the center of the roller conveyor.
- Using vision technology, the exact location of the drum locking mechanism is detected.
- A robotic arm equipped with scissors severs the barrel’s locking mechanism while another robot securely holds the lid in place.
- The lid + locking mechanism are discarded.
- The robots are ready for the new drum
The ADOS ensures efficient drum opening and helps increase production speed and reduce personnel costs.
The ADOS is a secure system and is easy to operate.
The ADOS is capable of processing all types of drums and various types of seals.
