This palletizer is a high-speed, fully automatic unit suitable for palletizing tanks up to 1200 tanks/h.
Each incoming carton is oriented and transferred to the preforming section of the layer. The completed layer is then transferred to a layer loading mechanism which lifts the layer and moves it horizontally until it is placed on top of the pallet. A sliding gate then opens and deposits the layer on the pallet. This cycle continues until the loading of the pallet is complete. The full pallet is then automatically transferred to a conveyor belt and at the same time an empty pallet is moved to the loading position. The entire operation is controlled by a PLC, which can be programmed to palletise cartons of different sizes, layer patterns and number of layers.
