What is a Palletizer and How Does It Work?
A palletizer is an automated material handling machine used to stack and orient several individual products into a single load for a more convenient and economical method of handling, storage, and shipment. Palletizers are usually part of a bigger packaging process where functions such as weighing, counting, sorting, labeling, metal detection, and wrapping are integrated. Some of these functions may be integrated into the palletizing machine itself or done by separate equipment.
