robotic depalletizer and bag opening system for chemical powders

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.

code printer for lot batch numbers and codes on 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.

Plastic Compounding with an Intermediate Bulk Container IBC System

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.

Screening Crushed Limestone at 650 Tons per Hour

A US lime producer needed to replace 2 brute force vibratory screens at their limestone quarry due to constant failure of the drive bearings, lost production time, and maintenance costs. After discussions with plant engineering, a single unit with a natural frequency drive screen was selected to process crushed limestone at a rate of 650 tons per hour.

Industrial Baghouse for Asphalt Production

Baghouse for Asphalt Plant

This baghouse, or dust collector, was installed at an asphalt plant.  It increased production capacity by 33%.

The asphalt producer had an undersized system and could not produce at the capacity needed in a reasonable time.  Trucks waited up to 2-1/2 hours for each new batch of asphalt.  The problem was particularly urgent since the business had grown substantially.
