FLOUR PACKAGING LINE
FROM POUCH TO PALLET
Our flour packaging line consists of two Flex7 Pre-Made Pouch Fill & Seal Machines, two TT-1200 Top-Load Case Packers and one Tetristack Robotic Palletizer. The raw product (almond and other powdered flours) is measured with the help of a vibratory weigh scale and funneled into a pouch. After the pouch has been sealed and discharged, it is transferred to the case-packing section of the packaging line. Pouches are collated and loaded into a case by a robotic pick-and-place device with a custom EOAT designed to handle pouches. Sealed cases are transferred to a palletizing section, where a Fanuc robot arranges the cases on the pallet in the desired pattern. The pallet is released from a high capacity pallet magazine and dispenser. The robot picks the pallet pad from a separate magazine and assigns it to the pallet. Cases form a row on the conveyor, the robot picks them up and places them on a pallet. When the first layer of cases is formed, the robot inserts a tier sheet and repeats the process once pallet is full.
FLOUR IN A CARTON?
Not a Problem!
If you primarily pack your flour product in a lined carton, we also
have a solution for you! Instead of a pouch filling machine, we
can integrate our TT-400 vertical cartoner featuring auger filler for non-free-flowing powder products.
