Low Level Case Palletizers - Series 4000
Low level infeed case palletizers have rugged construction and compact design to provide years of trouble free performance and productivity. Total automatic operation at speeds up to 180 layers/hour and power saving automatic shut down ensure value on your investment. A small footprint designed by separating the infeed and pallet handling systems from the main frame allows for placement when space is limited. Modular components allow for easy upgrading when future needs require additional options. All electro-pneumatic operation eliminates container contamination found in other hydraulic units.
With hundreds of Low Level Infeed Palletizers installed, Bastian has a solution that will last for decades.
How Low Level Case Palletizers Work
Auxiliary Row Accumulation allows product to be staged on an intermediate layer table enabling higher speeds. Layers are squared automatically on four sides, creating uniform and tight loads. The flexible design allows for various configurations of pallet and/or slip sheet dispensers and finished load discharge directions. Infeed possibilities include both a low and high level design. More sophisticated designs allow for handling dual infeed conveyors utilizing a single palletizer and a three position shuttle car palletizing station.
