Palletising power for flour
January 1st 2008 Allinson (Silverspoon), part of
Associated British Foods, along
with its consultants, Lorien
Engineering, chose Greenstone
Conveyor Systems to provide a
fully automatic, end-of-line robotic
palletising system.
It collects bagged flour from four
packaging machines and queues
them on accumulating conveyors
prior to palletising, by twin Fanuc
pick-and-place robots. Pallets are
fed into the system from a pallet
dispenser, via a space-saving
trolley car system that feeds them
under the outfeed bag
accumulating conveyors.
Fully loaded pallets are
automatically transferred via pallet
conveyor to a pallet stretch
wrapping machine. Once stretchwrapped,
pallets are off-loaded by
FLT and removed for storage. More articles from Greenstone Conveyor Systems Ltd: |
