Palletiser Machine

A palletizer machine or palletiser machine is a machine which provides automatic means for stacking bags or boxes with products inside onto a pallet.
Manually placing bags or boxes on pallets can be time consuming and expensive; it can also put unusual stress on workers.
There are specific types of palletizers including the row-forming like Ehcolo palletizer machines, which were introduced in the early 1950s. In row-forming palletizing applications loads are arranged on a row forming area and then moved onto a different area where layer forming takes place.
This process repeats until a full layer of bags or boxes are configured to be placed on a pallet.

The in-line palletizer like Ehcolo palletizer machines was developed in the 1970s when higher speeds were needed for palletizing. This palletizer type uses a continuous motion flow divider that guides the goods into the desired area on the layer forming platform.

Robot palletizers were introduced in the early 1980s and have an end of arm tool (gripper) to grab the bags or boxes from a conveyor or layer table and grip and position the bags or boxes onto a pallet.

Palletizing System

What do you do if you need more stackers, material handlers, or machines to stack boxes or bags?

One broad word tends to cover it; Palletizers. However, there are a few different types of automated palletizers that perform slightly differently in different environments. You should understand that NO two facilities are EXACTLY alike – no matter how similar their operation.

So we have used all of our expertise to bring you a guide to each of them and their use-cases.

Efficient palletizing and pallet configuration is a crucial aspect of many industries, from manufacturing and warehousing to logistics and distribution. The right palletizing system can significantly impact a company’s productivity, cost-effectiveness, and overall operations by providing the most efficient throughput and pallet configuration.

In this article, we’ll delve into the three main types of palletizing systems – industrial palletizers, collaborative palletizers, and conventional palletizers – and explore their unique features and applications.

Industrial Palletizers

Industrial palletizers are robotic systems, like supplied by Ehcolo, that excel in handling high-speed, heavy-load operations.
They are designed for compact palletizing and require minimal maintenance.

These machines are ideal for industries that demand high throughput and the stacking of products like bottles, bags, and cases. Link til siden “Robot palletizers”

Collaborative Palletizers

Collaborative palletizers, often called cobot palletizers, offer a different approach, focusing on a human-in-the-loop operation.

While they may not match the speed of industrial palletizers, cobot palletizers have their own set of advantages, particularly when it comes to flexibility and cost-effectiveness.

Conventional Palletizers

Conventional palletizers like Ehcolo range of palletizers, in contrast to robotic palletising systems, rely on mechanical pushers and overhead gantries to arrange products in specific patterns for stacking.

These systems often require more space, but come with their own unique capabilities.

Automatic Palletizing Machine

What Is an Automatic Palletizer?
An automatic pallet stacker is an industrial machine designed to automatically stack and organize bags or boxes onto pallets for storage or transportation.

This equipment is widely used in the manufacturing, warehousing, and logistics industries. It streamlines the packaging process at the end of the production line by replacing manual pallet stacking with robotic or mechanical systems. These machines bring consistency, speed, and reliability to the entire production process, replacing monotonous manual labor with the precision of advanced robotic technology.

Types of Automatic Palletizers

Automatic palletizers come in various types; each suited for specific application scenarios:

1. Conventional palletizers like Ehcolo supply: Utilize mechanical components to achieve high-speed, high-output operations. Suitable for products with uniform specifications such as cardboard boxes or bags.
Conventional palletizers are divided into low-position (ground-level) palletizers and high-position palletizers. Each type of palletizer has distinct technical features and specific applications, offering significant benefits to a wide range of industries and businesses.

See our Palletizers for empty bag bundles


2. Robot palletizers like Ehcolo supply: The most common configuration is the robotic palletizer, positioned between the pallet distributor and conveyor belt, using robotic arms equipped with grippers or vacuum cups. These systems are flexible and space-saving, ideal for mixed loads and diverse product types.

See our robot palletizers

3. Hybrid Pallet Palletizer: Combining the features of robotic palletizing systems and conventional palletising systems to achieve maximum efficiency and flexibility. Hybrid palletizers offer exceptional flexibility, speed, and reliability, making them a popular choice in manufacturing. Like Ehcolo types for palletising bags side-by-side and/or overlapped.

Some Ehcolo Strong points

We care – Save energy

We have developed a technology that saves energy when motors in the machine slow down or stop, which they do often as this is natural for a palletizing machine. This braking energy is re-used by other running motors reducing energy consumption by up to 20% compared to others. Contributing to a safer and healthier environment and economy. You can find the palletizer system, robotic palletizer or bag palletizer you are looking for, by contacting us. We offer our standard as well as tailor-made solutions.

External Control & Data Communication

“Anywhere Control” via Internet, Ehcolo supplied machines can be monitored and controlled from anywhere, and we can monitor and access everything, also the history of events, so that we remote and easily can make eventual diagnostic work and in fact also operate the machines, change parameters and eventually also change/improve software remote.

IoT (Internet of Things) ready.

 

Industry 4.0 compliance and enablement.

Our palletizer control has an OPC-UA server, which is the newest within data communication, many does not know it, but everybody will need to know and use, as this is the future way to do it and an easy way and well documented. In short, we can make available all thinkable data and then they can be captured by customer SCADA system in a format customer can easily handle. We just have to agree on which data you are interested in.

Gears with servo motors and normal geared motors.
We only use SEW motors and we are not used to any breakdown of any SEW parts, but should something happen in the future, the parts are normally available locally.
All motors are servo controlled, absolutely not normal, and has some costs also, but all items have soft start and stop, this extend life time many times and also very low noise.

NEW: is a newly developed “Ehcolo Preventive Maintenance Module” EPMM, which records operating times, driving length, number of start and stops, numbers of activation of sensors, temperatures, etc. etc., on every single item, resulting in informations/messages automatic on the touch screen, like time for maintenance and preventive service, all in order to minimize downtime.
