Pallet ExchangerPALLE-THRU with Optional Clamp

Summary and Features

A flexible pallet exchanger with an optional clamp.

Can be linked with other equipment

Can be connected to the line (can be used as part of the conveyor line). Because it is a conveyor line, it is possible to wait for the pallet you want to replace in advance. By linking with a vertical carrier or an automated warehouse, horizontal holding work is eliminated.

Processing Power

Since it can be replaced automatically, it is possible to maximize the processing capacity of the machine.

Loading cargo onto the conveyor 5 seconds, Pallet exchange 70 seconds, Loadng cargo off the conveyor 5 seconds, Load newly palleted cargo onto truck 30 seconds × 10 pallets = Approx. 19 minutes

Let’s solve the pallet exchange problem!

Recently there have been movements in certain industries, particularly foodstuffs and pharmaceuticals, to prevent pallets used in factories from being sent outside. This means that goods produced in those factories must be shifted from their factory pallets onto shipping pallets. By necessity, much of this shifting has been done manually by factory workers.

In other cases, goods arriving at warehouses and distribution centers must often be shifted from factory shipping pallets onto user pallets.

PALLE-THRU solves these pallet replacement challenges.
