Qimarox Crossrunners are an ideal solution for in-line placing of multiple palletisers. Thanks to the unique design, a single roller conveyor is sufficient to feed pallets in and out for multiple machines operating in machines.
The products are supplied by means of a feed belt that is placed on left or right side of the formation location. To do so the machine has a built-in buffer, where each formed row remains until a layer is complete. By depositing an entire layer at a time, the Highrunner mk7 needs to make fewer movements. This saves time, increasing the capacity when compared to other palletising systems.
Pallets pass along the bottom of the unit
Because the pattern-formation conveyor and pallet lift are located even higher, both empty and full pallets can pass underneath at ground level via the central roller conveyor.
In other words, in an arrangement with, for example, two Crossrunners next to each other, a full pallet from the first machine can be carried away under the second machine while this second machine simply continues palletising. Conversely, it is possible to transport an empty pallet to the second machine under the first machine via the roller conveyor without hindering the first machine at all.
Intelligent control software
Qimarox's intelligent control software ensures that the infeed and outfeed of pallets is carefully coordinated with the movements of the palletisers, so that collisions can be avoided.
It is even possible to assign different priorities per machine. This prevents the last palletiser from not being able to get rid of its full pallet because of the large flow of pallets coming from the other machines.
