Automatic palletizers are used to stack bags, boxes, and packaged products onto pallets at the end of a production line. These systems improve efficiency, reduce labor requirements, and create consistent pallet loads for storage and shipping.
Tinsley Equipment Company provides a range of automatic palletizing systems including robotic palletizers, gantry palletizers, and integrated bagging and palletizing solutions. These systems can be applied to new or existing packaging lines handling bulk solids, powders, aggregates, food ingredients, and industrial materials.
Each system can be configured based on product type, bag or box size, and required production rates. We can provide new or used palletizers to fit your existing space and budget.

Robotic bag handling equipment picking up 100 lb. bag of minerals using a bag gripper tool
A contract packaging company recently added robotic bag handling equipment to their existing valve bag filling system. The new palletizing system includes bag handling and robotic pick conveyors, a Fanuc robotic arm that has been reconditioned with a bag gripper tool, and an automated pallet and slip sheet dispenser.
With the added automation, the entire system is now able to fill and stack 100 lb. paper valve bags at a rate of 10-12 bags/minute. The company can also quickly swap out settings to fill and stack 50 lb. valve bags at a rate of 15-16 bags/minute.
This box palletizing robot can pick up multiple boxes at once and stack them on a shipping pallet. It can pick up different sized boxes from multiple infeed conveyors on both sides of the robot. An automatic pallet dispenser can line up multiple pallets at once to reduce downtime as full pallets are discharged from the box stack zone. Choose from different stacking patterns to fit your specific box and pallet sizes.
Streamline your end-of-line palletizing using a low-cost automatic bag palletizer. Adding a palletizer is one of the most cost-effective ways to reduce labor costs and improve efficiency. This article provides an overview of what a low-cost automatic bag palletizer is and highlights the features of the SentryStack palletizer.
These valve bag filling machines are used to fill 50 Lb. paper valve bags with different types of high-quality silica sand. After filling, bags are conveyed to an automatic palletizer that stacks the bags on a pallet.
This type of silica sand is a high-quality round and sub-round silica sand with mesh sizes ranging between 8×16 and 100. It has many uses including:
turf sand used for infill to protect artificial turf and increase its life expectancy
roofing sand for specialty roofing tiles, flooring titles, and colored grout
building and industrial sands as an ideal base for construction, concrete, bricks, foundry, and flooring
water filtration sand used in wells, filters, and other water fixtures
Automating the stacking, or palletizing, of bags at the end of a packaging line with a used robotic palletizer can provide a fast return on investment. Robotic palletizers can be oriented in any direction to accept bag inflow from a new or existing bagging system. They minimize the risk of repetitive injuries caused by stacking heavy bags on shipping pallets, while simultaneously reducing labor and staffing requirements.
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.
View of Bagging Machine and High-Speed Bag Closer in an Automated Packaging System
Rice producers face several challenges when it comes to bagging and packaging their product. Manual bagging processes can be time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to errors. To overcome these challenges, a USA-based rice producer sought an automated packaging system that could increase production efficiency, reduce labor costs, and improve bagging accuracy. In this case study, we’ll examine how the company successfully implemented the system, resulting in significant time and cost savings.
This unitizing system automatically applies a water-based glue, or palletizing adhesive, to plastic bags, paper bags, or corrugated boxes on a conveyor before they are palletized. This non-hazardous glue helps to secure the palletized bags in place to prevent slipping and sliding in the pallet stack.
The video below shows a pallet stacking robot stacking 50 lb. paper valve bags onto a pallet located on the floor per the programmed bag placement design. This robot was added to an existing bag filling system to reduce labor costs and increase automation.
Automatic pallet dispenser, slip sheet applicator, and robot stack zone conveyor (System 1)
When speed and bagging rate is important, automating the dispensing of pallets and slip sheets helps to reduce labor requirements for feeding shipping pallets into an automated palletizing system with a robot.
Bagging system, bag sewing system, and bag handling conveyors
This bagging plant fills 40KG open mouth plastic bags with different types of livestock feed for poultry, pigs, dairy cows, sheep, and horses. It includes a high-speed bagging machine, bag handling conveyors, and a palletizing robot with automatic pallet dispenser and automated pallet wrapper.
