The need for higher quality, faster and more serviceable machines is ever-lasting within beverage warehouses. Serving as the backbone to packaging operations, today’s palletizers and depalletizers incorporate flexibility, speed, high performance and safety to ramp up operations.
“The growing adoption of retail-ready and shelf-ready packaging designs at major retailers such as Walmart and Kroger are making brand owners re-evaluate their palletizing and depalletizing systems,” says Aaron Donlon, product manager at Delkor Systems, St. Paul, Minn. “These case designs are often more compact meaning tooling arms and pack patterns must adjust and plants must run at faster rates.”
