Modular Bottle Palletising System

The Modular bottle palletising system is quick to install, low cost and fast and easy to program.

An underneath gripper or specialist bespoke gripper are usually used for bottle palletising. An underneath gripper has a plate that slides underneath the bottle, and an arm that goes across the top and clamps down onto the bottle to hold it in place during lifting. Once the bottle has been placed in the desired location the top clamp is released and the bottle is then pushed off the gripper plate. The underneath gripper also has an integral vacuum gripper that is used to pick and place pallets onto the conveyor, and also to pick and place slip sheets between layers if required. Alternatively, a specialist bespoke gripper may be used, which will be designed and built specifically to suit your bottles as shown in the video below. A bespoke gripper can also be designed to enable it to pick and place pallets and slip sheets.

The Modular palletising series has been designed with easy programming software that enables your factory floor staff to re-program the robot for palletising different sizes of bottle within minutes. Bottle stack patterns are automatically optimised in the software which enables you to quickly select the best stack pattern to get the most on your pallet without having to spend a lot of time planning.

Palletising speeds are also optimised to suit your process and depending on the speeds you need to achieve, a standard pick and place method may be used, or for higher speed applications, a layer forming process will be used.

Custom modules can also be added to the Modular palletising series such as; box erectors, pallet stretch wrapping, labelling, etc. More information on the Modular palletiser series is available on the links below.
