Crates
Automatic crate palletizing requires a separate approach and our experience with various types of crates is very important. Due to the unique gripper concept, crates are automatically centered during pick-up and can therefore be palletized against each other. Crates that are completely filled to the top can also be processed by using a unique gripper.

Palletizing crates?
How does it work?
When palletizing crates, a sheet of cardboard or foil can be placed on the crate contents beforehand. A Spider can also be used to destack empty crates after which they can be fed to the filling lines. Once filled, the crates can be stacked back by the same or a second Spider, depending on the speed. With nestable crates, the orientation of the crate is taken into account and, if necessary, it is turned 180° before being palletized. After depalletizing, these are automatically unfolded and transported to the filling lines. An additional difficulty with palletizing and destacking crates is that they are always in a column on the pallet and the different columns can therefore open like a funnel.
The charge is held together by centering the layers. Because the Spider is a portal robot with a long vertical Z-axis, crates can be palletized and destacking can be easily done between high-standing walls. An automatic strapping machine can also be built into the Spider.
