Robotic Systems for Bales & Bags  

Product Detail

Features

  • Small palletizing systems for bags/bales have a single infeed lane, dual stacking stalls and manual pallet placement
  • Medium palletizing systems for bags/bales have dual infeed lanes, dual-lane stacking and single pallet dispensing
  • Large palletizing systems for bags/bales have multiple robot systems connected to a common pallet handling system – these systems can also be linked to a carton palletizing system
  • Single pallet dispensers for continuous flow of pallets to robot loading area
  • Robot continually stacks bags/bales on pallet in loading areas – when full, pallet is released to pallet discharge conveyor
  • Light curtains let the full pallets of product leave while the robot continues to palletize more product
  • The safety fencing is to protect employees, still letting them view the robot’s operations while meeting all safety standards of local labor laws
  • Dual pallet dispensers can be programmed to use different pallets to fill customer requests for specific pallet type. (ie. CHEP Pallets.) (Medium palletizing systems)
  • Automated slip-sheet depositor will help reduce labor costs and can be programmed to deposit slip-sheet to required orders only. (Medium palletizing systems)
  • Easy-to-access HMI (Human Machine Interface)
