E2 crate distribution, stacking and storage
An automatic path for E2 crates through the whole plant: from destacking dirty crates to storing clean ones and distributing them to workstations – designed and built to match your line.
Crate distribution
Conveyor systems move E2 crates automatically between the crate washer, filling stations, weighing and dispatch. Switches, lifts and buffer storage make sure a clean crate is always available where the line needs it.
More details
On overhead conveyors the crates travel above the working areas without taking up production space. They descend to workstations via C-chutes, while elevators bridge height differences between lines.
Everything is tied together by controls in electrical cabinets built for each specific line.
E2 crate stacker and destacker
The E2 destacker takes stacks of dirty crates apart one by one and sends each crate down the conveyor, while the stacker builds clean crates back into stable stacks. This removes manual crate handling – the most common bottleneck and a frequent cause of workplace injuries.
More details
The combined stacker/destacker joins both functions in a single machine. The machines are built in stainless steel with a hygienic design for wet production areas; capacity is matched to the takt of your line.
Crate storage
A robot stacks clean E2 crates into storage and automatically sends them back to the line whenever workstations need them. The store acts as a buffer between crate washing and crate use.
