Sound familiar?

Manual work with crates costs more than you think

  • Every crate is different

    Different sizes, brands and types of crates mixed together. Every deviation means a changeover, or doing it by hand after all.

  • Dirty crates back in the chain

    Crates have to go back clean and intact. Feeding, washing and checking them by hand is slow, and a damaged crate easily slips through.

  • The supply doesn’t keep pace with the line

    Crates come in at peaks. Without a buffer, the line stops or jams, and people have to step in to clear the stacks.

What capacity does a stacker achieve?

A crate stacker handles 3500+ crates per hour. The exact capacity depends on your product carrier and your line.

Does the machine fit into an existing line?

Yes. Standalone or as part of a complete system, even if the infeed and outfeed are at different heights.
