BW Integrated Systems’ Robotic Bulk Palletisers are changing how the industry thinks about traditional high-level, fixed automation. We’ve moved everything down to floor level. Depending on the end-of-arm tooling utilised, these systems can handle virtually any speciality, general purpose, or food containers made on your production line.
Robotic Bulk Palletising Machine Operation
The robot picks up a layer pad, then picks up an empty pallet and places the layer pad on top as it picks it up. The robot carries the empty pallet and places it on the load-building conveyor, where it is squared on the conveyor. The robot then picks up a layer pad and picks up its first product layer. The layer is placed on the pallet by the robot, and it is squared to the load. This process continues until the load is complete. Once the load is complete and the last layer is squared, the squaring mechanism is raised, and the load is discharged.
Safety and maintenance are of utmost importance to BW Integrated Systems. At the heart of the Robotic Bulk Palletiser is our simple and intuitive controls package - creating a system that is easy to use and understand. The system features a category-3 safety circuit and see-through fencing - making the entire palletising area visible. Through the use of robotics, the system has decreased spare parts requirements, as well as fewer maintenance areas.
Key Advantages:
- Flexible palletising cell - quick, reliable can size changeover
- Stationary load building - pallet does not lower for each layer eliminating disruption to previously palletised layers
- Cost effective method over traditional “high level” palletisers
- Flexible can infeed locations - floor level, allowing for access and visibility to palletising functions, or raised to allow foot traffic under the can line
Options:
- Multiple pallet size capability
- Filled steel can capability
- Separate handling for pallets, layer pads, and top frames for higher output lines
- Indexing layer centring assembly for straight square pallet loads - holds existing layer while next layer is placed on layer pad
