Automatic palletizer systems play a critical role in improving post-forming processes in metal sheet production lines. At Zhongtuo Cold Roll Forming Machinery Co., Ltd., we have developed a range of intelligent and efficient palletizing solutions designed to streamline the discharge, stacking, and handling of formed sheets. These solutions are built for seamless integration with roll forming machines, significantly reducing manual labor while increasing productivity and precision.
After metal sheets are formed and cut, smooth handling becomes essential to protect product quality and ensure efficient downstream logistics. Zhongtuo’s automatic palletizer series addresses this need with three distinct models, each tailored for different operational needs and plant conditions: the Flat Plate Automatic Palletizer, Mobile Automatic Stacker, and Steel Palletizer.
1. Flat Plate Automatic Palletizer: Reliable and Precise Sheet Discharge
The flat plate automatic palletizer is engineered for direct integration with roll forming and cutting lines. After the sheet is cut, it is immediately transferred to a discharge rack equipped with four intelligent lift units. These lifts can adjust their height automatically based on the number of sheets, ensuring that newly formed sheets drop gently onto the stack without damage.
This smart elevation control prevents creases and dents that may result from height differences during stacking. With features such as automatic alignment and discharge, this palletizer guarantees flat, neatly stacked sheets ready for packaging or further processing. It is especially effective for high-volume production and offers strong load-bearing capacity, stable performance, and full compatibility with tile press machines or other forming equipment.
2. Mobile Automatic Stacker: Flexible and Labor-Saving Handling
The mobile automatic stacker is designed for operations requiring greater flexibility in material handling. This unit is equipped with a grab lever system that gently transfers cut sheets from the forming line to the receiving table. The grab arms hold each board securely, transferring them to a designated stacking area with precision and care.
This method of transfer ensures that the surface of each sheet remains undamaged during handling. Once the stack reaches a preset height, the unit can be easily moved using a forklift. This mobile system not only reduces labor intensity but also improves workplace efficiency by supporting safe, controlled transportation of stacked sheets. It’s an energy-efficient choice for companies seeking to upgrade their post-forming logistics without expanding labor costs.
3. Steel Palletizer: Optimized for Heavy-Duty Forming Lines
The steel palletizer is Zhongtuo’s high-end solution for customers working with heavier steel components such as C, Z, and U profiles. Designed for tight integration with metal forming systems, this unit features a double-track, double-folding transfer system that minimizes space usage while maximizing load handling capabilities.
Capable of supporting materials up to 450mm in width and 350kg in weight, this palletizer is ideal for heavy-duty applications. The steel palletizer ensures a seamless fit with the forming machine, maintaining a smooth and continuous production flow. Its compact structure allows it to be installed in limited spaces, and it can be customized to fit specific factory layouts and handling requirements. This adaptability makes it an excellent choice for steel processing plants aiming to boost automation without sacrificing floor space.
