| A live roller layer forming conveyor is used to accumulate bags for transfer into
the pallet loading area. The rollers are driven from the underside by an 18" wide
belt conveyor which eliminates the maintenance normally associated with chain driven live
rollers. For bags with special handling characteristics, an indexing forming belt conveyor
is available. The Model 2150 Semi-Automatic
Palletizer requires a full time operator to form the layer stacking pattern on an air
flotation table. All other functions are fully automatic.
Intermediate speed palletizers use a "Multi-Push"
method to form the desires layer patterns. After a partial layer is created on the forming
rolls, it is transferred to the loading area. When the next portion of the layer is ready,
it is pushed onto the load plates to complete the pattern. |
