Sanovo Technology adds new Cartesian egg palletiser  

Sanovo technology group's family of palletisers and depalletiser has expanded with the new Cartesian Egg Palletiser - Minipall (MP) added to the well-established series of anthropomorphic robotic machines.

The MP is designed to automate the work of egg trays palletisation. It is a Cartesian robot able to palletise at a speed of 72 eggs/hour with plastic or pulp trays. It can handle plastic or carton interlayers as well as plastic or wooden pallets with the most common dimension standards.

It can be installed downstream of a Farmpacker as well as a Grader, offering solutions from 1-2 incoming stack's conveyors and single full pallet positions, and the full pallet can be ejected automatically or manually. The integration of a weighing system at the end of the full pallet exit roller conveyor, including a printed label to facilitate recognition and source proves useful.

As egg trays arrive from the Farmpacker in stacks of six trays, they will be conveyed to the robot pick up position, and if necessary a top tray will be placed on top of each stack as a cover. When arriving at the robot area, the robot head will pick up four stacks at a time and will load them on a full pallet, which can be placed on the floor or on a roller/chain conveyor for customers who prefer an automatic exit.

Between the egg stacks a plastic or a carton interlayer can be placed, one only needs to fill the proper interlayer location with the type of material you need. The maximum height of the full egg pallet is six layers/levels.
