Space limitations
The cell is laid out around your floor, columns and aisles, not a fixed catalog footprint.
Automated palletizing systems
Modular palletizing systems, built for continuous duty
The short answer
An automated palletizing system is more than the palletizer. It is the infeed, the palletizing unit, the pallet positions, the safety and the controls — five modules we configure around your line, on palletizers designed for continuous 24/7 operation.
Anatomy of a system
The five modules of an automated palletizing system
Numbered on a 3D model of one of our robotic palletizing cells. Buying only the palletizer leaves the other four to someone else.
Infeed
The conveyor that brings cases to the palletizer, oriented and spaced so every pick starts from the same place.
Palletizing unit
A robotic palletizer for heavier cases and faster lines, or a gantry for cases up to 65 lb on low- to medium-speed lines.
Pallet position
Where the load is built and taken away. The gantry's published price is for a single-pallet configuration; more positions are scoped.
Safety
Guarding, light curtains at the pallet opening and safety controls. Standard safety is included; site-specific requirements are added.
Controls and status
The controls, HMI and stack lights that run the cell and tie it to the equipment upstream and downstream.
Module 02
Heavy-duty or simple: choosing the palletizing unit
Both units are designed for continuous 24/7 operation. What separates them is load and pace: heavier cases, faster lines and changing patterns need the robot; steady lines with cases up to 65 lb run well on the gantry.
Starting prices exclude installation and apply to customers in the United States.
Configured, not rebuilt
What modular means on your floor
Our standard palletizers are built with modular engineering, so a system is adapted to your plant rather than engineered from a blank sheet.
Product-handling requirements
Gripper, pattern and infeed are matched to your cases, their weight and how they arrive.
Customized safety features
Guarding and safety controls sized to your site's requirements, beyond the standard package where needed.
Production-line configuration
Built to integrate with upstream and downstream equipment, so the system fits the line you already run.
Grow in stages
A system that can grow with the line
Each step is scoped as its own project against the line at the time — not a plug-in we promise in advance.
Start with the palletizing cell
Automate the heaviest, hardest-to-staff station first, with the modules the line needs today.
Extend upstream
Add case packing ahead of the palletizer when the line is ready for it.
Case packersRun it as one line
Tie the machines into one controls architecture so they start, stop and recover together.
Integrated automationUpgrade as needs change
Controls, safety and equipment upgrades keep the system current as products and rates change.
