Palletization of packs of PET bottles

This project is focused on the palletizing phase of an automatic system handling bundled PET bottles containing mineral water, all designed, produced and tested in our main plant.
The customer’s requirement is to manage a production of 28.000 bottles per hour, all the bottles are 1,5 liters, while pallets are made of wood in two sizes (1200 x 800 h.140 mm and 800 x 600 h.140 mm).
The supply includes the conveyor system moving the bundles towards the robot, a number of belts arranging the lots on an accumulation point, following the scheme required by the pallet’s layer. The basket picking head takes the entire layer and arranges it on the actual palletizing area.
The supply also includes some other devices: pallet warehouse and separators, full and empty pallet transportation roller units, protective film applying ring winder, safety and protection systems.
