Palletizers & Depalletizers
Agilis is a palletizer with high level product infeed and a vertical lift pallet loading system.

The Agilis palletizer with high level product infeed
The main machine structure is composed of two columns made of 5mm painted carbon steel sheet with two dead weight sliding blocks providing the counter balance. Power to lift the pallets is provided by a double motor with inverter and encoder control. The lift/lowering motion is provided by 1¼” chains and steel wheels sliding on guides made of high resistance steel.
Agilis is equipped with a double rotating bar for layer transfer from the pre-formation to the deposit area; the bars are mounted on two lateral drive chains, pulled by a motor gear reducer unit with inverter control.
Self-centering type side compacting bars, pulled through polyurethane toothed belts by an electromechanical control unit, provide automatic adjustment when changing the palletization pattern. The contact surface of the bars is made of low friction material.
The design allows the system to be configured simply as required and gives open access to all parts of the machine, via a platform, for easy set up and maintenance.
Production capacity: up to 6 layers/min

Depalletizer Velox discharges product from the top and features a vertical lift pallet unloading system designed for medium to high speed. The main operations (i.e. pallet lift, pallet transfer, etc.) are controlled through encoders: this gives extremely accurate positioning during operation.

The POLARIS EVO system allows the preparation of a whole layer of products, according to a pre-defined pattern, with pack gripping heads that move and/or rotate packs to their required position, avoiding shocks thanks to a gentle handling.

Low level infeed mono–column type palletizer Artis EVO features a steady pallet loading system and an innovative layer pick-up head. It is suitable for medium/high production capacity.

Robotic isles Omnia are especially suitable for low and medium speed lines and when high flexibility is needed thanks to the simultaneous palletization/depalletization feature and fast gripping heads changeover. They represents a long term value investment.

Last year was not a year of hyped-up headlines for alternative proteins. Perhaps that is precisely why it was an important year for food biotech, the biotechnology behind everyday foods and ingredients. While the sector worked through a difficult funding environment, approvals were still granted, pilot lines set up and new platforms tested in the background. In short: headlines are turning into infrastructure. Frederieke Reiners heads GEA’s New Food business. She and her team work at the intersection of biotechnology and industrial food production. In this interview, she takes us on a world tour of food biotech in seven questions.
