Smipal Palletizers APS series sets a new standard in the market of automatic palletisers. In fact, it stands out as the result of Smigroup relentless engagement in research and innovation, leading towards state-of-the-art packaging solutions suitable for each and every customer’s need.
The robitic palletizers APS series is composed of automatic systems for the palletisation of cases, bundles, trays and other commonly used packs.

Thanks to the possibility to combine in various configurations the central body (column) with some standardized pallet-handling modules, the palletising systems offered by Smipal are greatly flexible and easily adaptable to any logistic condition of the user’s end-of-line area, both in existing plants and in new operations.
Smipal systems are available in two models:

• APS 3000, single-column system based on two Cartesian axes motion, with capacity up to 300 layers/hour for bottom-to-top movement systems. The vertical axe is composed of a hard-set vertical column along which a horizontal beam runs on recirculating-sphere guides. The horizontal axe of operation is made up of the beam, along which, again on recirculating-
sphere guides, the grip-head holding arm moves. The beam’s vertical motion and the grip-head holding arm’s horizontal motion (depending on the palletising system chosen) are driven by brushless motors, which ensure perfect trajectories during the whole palletisation process.
The system’s functions can be enhanced by adding an optional device enabling the grip-head to rotate around its own vertical axe.

• APS 5000, single-column system based on one Cartesian axe motion (vertical), with capacity up to 500 layers/hour for top-to-bottom movement systems. This system is not equipped with a horizontal beam, since the grip-head holding arm runs vertically along the hard-set column. The system’s functions can be enhanced by adding an optional device enabling the grip-head to rotate around its own vertical axe.
