FAQs
What is a floor level palletizer and how does it work?
Package / product infeed elevation is usually at 36″ above the floor for a Floor Level palletizer. Complete loads of product are built by forming rows of product which become complete layers. Layers are stacked to create complete pallet loads with a predetermined load configuration.
What are the benefits of using a floor level palletizer?
All machine access, viewing and maintenance can be conveniently done from the floor.
What are the key features of a floor level palletizer?
Most floor-level infeed palletizers receive products at about 36″, forming rows and layers in specific patterns. Layers are stacked to create complete pallet loads with a predetermined load configuration.
How can I determine the right size of floor level palletizer for my operations?
Palletizer sizing is a function of desired production rate (cases per minute), layer patterns and machine and facility layout.
How does a floor level palletizer improve production efficiency?
Automating the end of a production line is a necessity when the rate is too high for workers to safely build loads by hand, or when the finished load is tall, creating a risk of injury due to repetitive motion activity.
What are the maintenance requirements for floor level palletizers?
Maintenance needs are minimal but depend on the application. Dusty environments or 24/7 operations require more frequent upkeep. Typical annual tasks may include replacing conveyor belts, cylinder seals, or sensors.
