Beumer has reengineered its layer palletizer Beumer paletpac to offer users a better accessibility, a shorter assembly period, higher flexibility and lower costs.
The solution is incorporated into packaging lines to process even sensitive and valuable products in a gentle and efficient manner.
With the layer palletiser series Beumer paletpac, the intralogistics specialist supplies high-capacity machines, which stack bags filled with bulk material on pallets gently and exactly layer by layer.
The products include cement, mortar, pellets, industrial salts and fertilizers filled in paper, polyethylene or polypropylene bags.
With geometric precision during layer and stack formation, stable bag stacks are formed.
Multiple pallet loads created with the Beumer paletpac can even be stacked one on top of the other to save storage space.
The company has redesigned the Beumer paletpac to make it even more sustainable.
Improved efficiency
Until recently, the system was equipped with large drives.
Now small motors carried out as servo drives are used and optimize the energy consumption needed for the lifting movement.
In addition, these motors need less maintenance thus further reducing the costs for the user.
Other improvements include a better accessibility for easy cleaning underneath the machine, the external frame elements can be folded, allowing the whole palletizer head to fit into one transport container.
The palletizing head does not have to be dismounted and the total amount of containers sent to the customer can be reduced.
This alleviates the transportation costs and shortens the assembly period on site.
The pallet pusher that automatically provides the hoist unit with empty pallets has also been modified.
The guides for the pallet side plate have been modified and a new lateral guide system has been introduced, as the designers changed the drive performance and decreased the system width.
Now the user can quickly and easily adapt the palletizer to different pallet sizes without the use of tools.
The solution palletizes bags up to a pack height of 2,400 mm, in all technically possible packing patterns and on any commonly used pallet size – including intermediate sizes such as 1,400 mm by 1,200 mm.
A multi-program enables the user to set parameters easily and quickly.
The Beumer paletpac can be provided with a bar-type or clamp-type turning device or with a newly developed twin-belt turning device to position the filled bags quickly, ensuring their dimensional stability.
The solution is equipped with the Beumer group human machine interface, an operator panel with an optimized user interface and navigation, which creates easily understandable and intuitive interaction, enabling the user to define efficient working sequences.
The operator can control the machine safely, independently of prior skills, training and capabilities, thus saving time and money which ensures high economic efficiency.
