Box Palletizing Systems
Nested Box Palletizing
Description:
A stack of boxes in a large array may be on a slipsheet. Invert the top box to cover all bottles and create a closed, stackable unit. Finally, the array gets horizontally banded.
Transport & Shipment:
Transport using a squeeze truck only. The array can be stacked high in a warehouse before shipment and to full trailer height for optimizing truck space. The box bears the top load of the stack.
End-User Process:
The customer manually unpacks the bottles, fills them, then re-uses the box for shipping the finished product to the end-customer.
- Tightly stack boxes within box flaps to reach the maximum box per stack capacity while maintaining stability
- Can invert top-most box to create a closed, stackable unit for shipment
- To decrease labor costs and risks and increase line throughput as compared to manual box stacking
Closed Top Box Palletizing
Description:
A stack of boxes placed on a pallet or directly onto a slipsheet. Another slipsheet goes on top of the unit. Finally, the array is banded and/or stretch-wrapped.
Transport & Storage:
Transport using a fork truck or a squeeze truck. The array can be stacked high in a warehouse before shipment and to full trailer height for optimizing truck space. The box bears the top load of the stack.
End-User Process:
The customer manually dumps bottles into a descrambler to filler. The box is either discarded or returned for re-use.
- Tightly stack boxes within box flaps to reach the maximum box per stack capacity while maintaining stability
- To decrease labor costs and risks and increase line throughput as compared to manual box stacking
Open Top Box Palletizing
Description:
Boxes stacked to a half-truck height, either on a 40″ x 48″ pallet or directly on a slipsheet with another slipsheet covering the top layer. Typically, a slipsheet goes between each layer. Finally, the entire unit gets banded.
Transport & Storage:
Transport using a fork truck or a squeeze truck. The array can be stacked high in a warehouse before shipment. Stack two units high inside the truck for efficient utilization of space. The box bears the top load of the stack.
End-User Process:
The customer manually unpacks the bottles, fills them, then places them back in the box. Re-use the box for shipping the finished product to the end customer.
- Tightly stack boxes within box flaps to reach the maximum box per stack capacity while maintaining stability
- To decrease labor costs and risks and increase line throughput as compared to manual box stacking
