ABC Model 108
Automatic Bulk Depalletizer
This Model 108 high level bulk depalletizer delivers low
level operation and high level container discharge,
providing all the benefits of high level bulk depalletizing
with the simplicity and convenience of a floor level
machine. Its clean, open profile ensures high visibility and
the floor level operator station makes it easy to control
operation and review operating data. Designed with
innovative features to maintain total bottle control during
depalletizing, and built for long-term production, this
depalletizer is the solution for bottle handling productivity.
Versatile for Many Applications
This depalletizer runs plastic, glass, aluminum, steel and composite
containers interchangeably, with no optional change parts required. It can
handle loads up to 110" high.
High Level
Touch Screen Operator Panel Puts You in Control of All Palletizing
Operations
The color display shows real-time operating data and allows independent
operation of all palletizing functions, diagnostics, and changeover settings.
It provides an easy to follow sequence for auto and manual functions, and
auto-setup for daily, shift or batch runs. Preventative maintenance
messages automatically alert the operator for periodic or routine
maintenance.
Quality Production Features
This depalletizer is built with a channel steel frame with welded and bolted
construction that eliminates vibration and ensures long machine life. It
features 1-1/4" solid shafts on the pallet conveyor and sweep bar drive
units, and 1-1/2" elevator table drive shaft for strength. Heavy duty
industrial roller chain carries the elevator table. These efficient design and
quality production features ensure high volume, reliable operation.
High Performance Features
•
Heavy steel frame construction- welded and
bolted for strength
•
Mechanical primary and secondary layer
squaring before sweep-off
•
Electro-mechanical dual chain-driven sweep
bar
•
Automatic container height detector
•
Four side containment devices on sweep
carriage: adjustable side plates, rear sweep
bar and front stabilizer bar
•
Stainless steel, reinforced transfer table with
tapered stripper plate
Secondary Layer is Secured to Maintain Pallet Integrity
As the primary layer is swept from the pallet, the secondary layer is
secured on all four sides by pneumatically controlled steel friction plates.
Below, the tier sheet is held in place by grippers that hold it securely
during sweep off.
A-B-C's Intelligent Control Gives You More
Included in the base price of the machine, this package
features:
•
PLC electronics for precise control of machine
operation
•
Pre-programmed case size and pallet layer
configurations
•
Standard fault detection features
Economical Floor Level Palletizer
While this bag palletizer operates at floor level, it accepts
bag feed from any level. So you can enjoy the benefits of
low level operation with low, medium or high level product
feed.
The clean, open construction and floor level access points
of this bag palletizer simplify routine maintenance. On-
floor operation allows plant personnel to monitor palletizer
operation while performing other tasks.
Top Features to Ensure Optimum Container Stability
The sweep carriage that transfers containers from the pallet to the
transfer table has four containment devices to ensure bottle stability; two
adjustable side plates, a rear sweep bar, and front support bar. The
precision chain and sprocket sweep mechanism provides long-term
reliability and is proven in hundreds of installations worldwide. The
elevator table is guided by 8-point location roller bearings and is
counterweighted for smooth vertical operation to maximize container
stability.

Sweep Gap Eliminated to Keep Bottles Stable from Pallet to
Discharge
The motorized support bar travels with the bottle load during sweepoff, to
prevent friction from causing bottle instability. The support bar is
adjustable to ensure complete bottle containment throughout transfer.
Choose Your Level of Automation
Many optional features are available to extend depalletizer
automation, including an empty pallet stacker, picture frame and
slipsheet remover, full pallet conveyor, and container single filer.
