Conveyors move raw materials and finished products through a dairy plant. After filling, packages might travel to secondary packaging stations, to freezers, to warehouses and to pallets.

Intelligrated launched two enhanced palletizer models, the Alvey 890i and 891i, at Pack Expo in September.

The HL6200 is the third machine in the trilogy of new high-level high-speed palletizers from Columbia Machine, which also includes HL7200 and HL9200.

Conveyor systems and robotic palletizers, not people, are moving heavy packages around dairy plants. Robots grab cases and build pallets of dairy products destined for the load-out dock or the warehouse.

The Canadian packaging equipment company Premier Tech has acquired the Brazilian firm Almeida Martins.

 Schneider Packaging Equipment’s flexible palletizers offer rapid changeover. The palletizers are ideal for single or multiple lines and/or multiple SKUs.
