A-B-C Packaging introduced a palletizer with all-stainless steel sanitary construction for dairy plant installations. This palletizer runs dairy-style plastic trays and crates, plus regular slotted cheese and half slotted cheese cases for flexibility. It is designed for reliable and powerful load transfer with a mechanical row pusher bar with a dual chain drive. A counterweighted elevator table ensures stable container transfer and eliminates stress on the drive motor for longer motor life. Low-level construction provides the freedom of floor-level operation, and a clean, open profile ensures easy access. The color touchscreen operator panel shows real-time operating data. 800-237-5975; www.abcpackaging.com
