This automatic drum palletizer uses a robotic arm to pick up and stack drums on shipping pallets. The end-of-arm tool can be adjusted, and the stacking pattern can be re-programmed to easily accept different types and sizes of drums. The drum palletizer is also set up to stack the drums with the labels pointing in the same direction.

One of our manufacturers recently designed and implemented an automatic depalletizer and bag dump station for a customer in the chemical industry. The system involves a robot depalletizer that unstacks 50 lb. bags of chemical powders from a shipping pallet located to the left and right side of the robot. The bags are picked up 3 at a time and placed 1 at a time on a conveyor that transports them to an inclined belt conveyor that discharges them into automatic bag dump station. In this article, we’ll provide an overview of the system, explain how the robot depalletizer system works using a vision system, and outline the features and benefits of the system.

Drawing of a high-speed big bag filling system. Measurements are in millimeters.
In this hi-speed big bag filling system, raw sugar is unloaded from big bags, or bulk tote bags, conveyed to a vibratory screen where it is separated into 3 fractions and one waste fraction, and then re-packaged into big bags.

Lot / batch code and date printed on bottom part of bag after passing print head
This inkjet code printer was put to the test in an animal feed and minerals packaging line. Multi-wall open mouth paper bags, filled with animal feed are sewn shut. Then, they pass in front of the code printer on a conveyor before robotic palletizing. As each bag passes the code printer, a lot code and date are printed on the bottom part of the bag. Each of these unique codes helps to identify when the batch of product was produced and packaged.
Category | Bulk Processing Equipment | Intermediate Bulk Containers or IBCs |
An Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC) System is used to prepare a homogeneous dry blend of base polymers and additives before the extrusion phase in a plastic compounding process. Plastic compounding and toll processing companies first use an IBC system to create a lab formulation or test to confirm final product characteristics before creating a masterbatch. Once a final product has been confirmed, the same IBC system is used to create a larger batch or production run.
IBC is easily transported by forklift to other discharge stations
This type of set up using an Intermediate Bulk Container (IBC) System is also known as a decoupled system because ingredients can be moved, mixed, and blended independently inside the IBCs.
