High infeed PalletizerHigh infeed row-forming palletizers
High infeed case palletizer model groups share common functional modules and frame systems to provide comprehensive palletizer solutions. Shared modules maximize layout flexibility while reducing cost through increased manufacturing and machine controls efficiencies. Modular engineering means quality control and complete flexibility in the configuration of machine components. No customization is required. The orientation of induction and load exit of our high-level infeed palletizer will meet your exact requirements.

EasyStack® Software
TopTier palletizers can build any pallet pattern, with up to 99 patterns stored and instantly accessible. End users can easily create new patterns using the HMI touch screen common to both conventional and robotic models.
EuroDrive gear motors
Equipped with encoder feedback controlled by servo drives operating in VFD mode provide accurate and refined motion of all primary components.
Allen Bradley controls
Higher speed configurations PLC’s and VFD’s

CONTROLS
TopTier's high infeed case palletizers combine the most recent advances in machine control technology with an intuitive interface HMI and EasyStack® pattern programming software. Additional controls information..
SAFETY
Safety has been integrated into every aspect of our upper level case palletizer design. TopTier meets all industry standards utilizing a category 3 safety cage frame design with light curtain protection of load exit, redundant hoist fall protection, and controlled door entrance protocols
TopTier is the global leader in concurrent stretch wrapping technology. Concurrent wrapping saves floor space and lowers overall end-of-line costs. New patented features save film and insure continuous palletizing operations.
Load Labeling
Labels are applied on from 1 to 4 sides of the load.
For multiple palletizer configurations, labels may be applied at a single common station.
Perfect Pattern Induction
Exclusive PerfectPattern palletizer technology positively controls product handling through the infeed system providing confirmation of final product orientation and known position for row building. Proper product orientation eliminates defective patterns. Available in medium and higher speed configurations.
Products are squared prior to row build allowing perfectly spaced rows
Each product length is measured to confirm product orientation prior to row build
Rare defectively orientated products can be automatically rejected or an alarm can initiate operator intervention
Products are precisely positioned on row build allowing accurate electronic gapping of rows avoiding product collisions
Pallet Handling
Empty pallet handling consists of a pallet dispenser and systems to position a pallet at the load build. Pallets used by in industry vary in quality, height and design. Empty pallets are difficult to reliably transport due to inconsistencies in the pallet bottom. Pallet handling system positively position and square empty pallets using pusher systems and the pallet dispenser is a universal lift and separate design using forks to reliably support the pallet stack.
Sheets handling
TopTier offers comprehensive sheet handling capabilities. Freezer separator sheets that facilitate air flow are handled. Sheet insertion equipment is used to place an empty pallet onto a half load allowing double stack loads.
Features
Pallet liners are inserted with a horizontally travelling vacuum pick and place device
Tie sheets, freezer sheets, slip sheets, and top caps are inserted with a vertically and horizontally travelling vacuum pick and place device capable of placing a sheet at any level of the load
Sheets inserted at load build position for unitized loads
Tie sheet inserters can be equipped with up to three pick positions allowing separate sheet styles
Low Infeed: Sheets are loaded into a 18" capacity drawer and safely loaded during palletizer operations
High Infeed: Sheet inserter mounted above or at mezzanine level. The mezzanine level device is manual loaded with up to 18" of sheets with one or two bins available. Bins may be loaded at ground level and positioned with a forklift. Optional lift device is available to raise sheet stack to the upper level position.
Sheet bin loading with no interruption of operations
Sheet size less than 60" in either dimension including 2, 3 or 4 tab models
Capacity of 18" of sheets
Multiple Palletizer Shuttle
SHUTTLES ARE A COST EFFECTIVE OPTION ON MULTIPLE PALLETIZER CONFIGURATIONS.
A FULLY AUTOMATED SINGLE CAR CAN BOTH DELIVER EMPTY PALLETS TO AND RETRIEVE COMPLETED LOADS FROM EACH PALLETIZER.
