On May 27, 2020, a famous water company in Yunnan ordered an automatic palletizer from our Company for 5-gallon bottle water in line L8 with a capacity of 2,400 bottles/h. The project includes one MD-1601 automatic palletizer, one bottle collector, two flat top chain conveyors with B=190.5 L=6.1m, one 90° turning flat top chain with B=190.5 L=7.3m, four power roller conveyors for transporting bottom pallet, middle pallet and finished products stack, one pallet shaper, one pallet separator and one pallet pusher.

The biggest feature of this project compared with other palletizing projects of our Company is the full automation of the whole palletizing process. To achieve this, three newly designed machines are added, namely pallet shaper, pallet separator and pallet pusher. These three machines are new innovative products of our Company. The pallet separator separates a stack of 12 bottom pallets into individual bottom pallets that are automatically fed into the palletizing station by a power roller conveyor, eliminating the need for manual placement. The pallet shaper tidies up a stack of 13 pallets (1 bottom pallet and 12 middle pallets) and then the power roller conveyor feeds them into the pallet gripping station for the palletizer. The pallet pusher automatically pushes the lowest bottom pallet of the middle pallet stack into the palletizing station, eliminating the need for manual extraction.  Another feature is the high-end configuration: Siemens for PLC, Danfoss for inverters, Schneider for main electrical components, SEW for motors, SMC for pneumatic components, SICK for proximity switches, and Bonner for photoelectric switches.  The full automation and high-end configuration is a qualitative breakthrough for our palletizers.
