Palletising

Article (1)
  • Mixed case palletising solutions
    Driven by OHS concerns and skills shortages, there is an increasing demand for smart solutions that take mixed case palletising in a new and exciting direction. Advances in software, robotics and intelligent storage, buffering and sequencing systems have enabled the development of two innovations designed to reduce the cost and improve the efficiency, productivity and safety of building mixed case pallets.

  • Pallet wrapper
    The Autopac 1525RC pallet wrapper can have a remote control facility installed so the whole process of pallet wrapping can be achieved from the forklift driver’s seat. The device continues wrapping automatically while the forklift operator is picking up the next pallet for wrapping. This streamlines the whole process, increasing output capacity and improving efficiency.

  • Vacuum system for palletising
    Vuototecnica includes the Octopus system in its range, the answer to the need for operational flexibility for palletising robots and vacuum-operated handling systems. This system allows any object of any shape and kind, except those with excessive transpiration, to be supported without having to change or position suction pads, even when their surface covers only 5% of the entire suction surface; the maximum weight of the load to be lifted will naturally be in proportion to the lifting surface.
