FÖRSTER + KRAUSE GMBH

The system adapts single set of ABB robot palletizer and two sets of pallet supplier. The robot will pick 3 cartons at one time to reach the speed about 27 cartons per minute.

With decades of know-how and worldwide expertise in the core areas of conveyor technology, robot systems, palletizing, depalletizing and automation, TRAPO AG presents itself as a renowned manufacturer and total systems supplier of conveyor systems, palletizing technology and packaging machines. Primary and secondary packaging such as cartons, trays, pails and more are palletized and depalletized. The machines in our systems impress with their flexibility, high performance and economic efficiency. We produce in Germany and set standards worldwide ranging from engineering contracts to automation. The palletizers of the HLP series operate with high and low inlet. The product range of the high-capacity layer palletizers is optionally equipped with a y-axis, rotary module or even a traversing axis — so that one or more palletizing stations can be operated as required.

The PRINCIPAL-P, a high-performance portal palletizer, combines the high speed of the PRINCIPAL-H with a gripper adapted to the respective application, e.g. combined grippers for palletizing bags and boxes. The great advantage of the PRINCIPAL-P is that it does not push bags, but lays them down and can therefore palletize them overlapping. Furthermore, the bags are pressed from all four sides to obtain a well-structured layer pattern. Boxes are also lifted, laid and afterwards the layer is formed. When arranging the bags or boxes, it is ensured that the bags or boxes are brought into the required position, e.g. barcodes can be read from the outside. In addition, a robot can be installed for possible depalletizing work. Further options enable the PRINCIPAL-P to be optimally adapted to customer requirements.

Semi-automatic rotary table pallet wrapper, model ECO/A, complete with: - Photocell for reading pallet height - Digital panel with 3 wrapping programs (up, up-down-manual) - Soft start inverter - Manual film block/cut and automatic wrapping cycle - Reset button for repositioning the film at the base of the column - Foldable column for ease of transportation - Forklift-compatible base - Mechanical clutch for film tensioning Operation: Place the pallet on the platform, secure the film to the base, select the wrapping program, and press the start button. The machine automatically begins wrapping and stops. Cut the film manually. Stretch film for wrapping machines: The film commonly used on wrapping machines is 23 microns. The film can also be used in 30 microns, suitable for protecting the pallet contents from sunlight.
