What is palletising?

Palletising, especially when combined with robotics, is the method of stacking, packaging, and moving products on pallets to enhance efficiency in handling, transporting, and shipping. The integration of robotic systems in palletising solutions can significantly boost operational performance by automating the process, reducing human error, and increasing throughput. Robotics helps optimise space, reduce handling time, and ensure stable pallets with optimal stacking patterns, offering a more streamlined and precise solution for various industries.

At L-A-C Logistics Automation, we specialise in providing customised palletising solutions that enable goods to be stacked closely together. As a result, larger volumes can be moved simultaneously, significantly increasing the speed and efficiency of your supply chain. Our systems incorporate robotic solutions, arm tooling, and automation to enhance palletising efficiency and reduce heavy lifting.

What are the different palletising methods?

Palletising robots vary depending on industry requirements, product types, and operational needs. The most common methods include:

Layer by Layer Palletising

Layer Palletising is a structured approach where products are stacked in pre-defined layers to create a stable load.

Robotic Palletising

Robotic Palletising is a solution using industrial robots for automated stacking, improving efficiency and precision.

Mixed Case Palletising

Mixed Case Palletising is ideal for distribution centres handling various products, ensuring flexibility in pallet configurations.

Manual Palletising

Manual Palletising is traditional stacking by human workers, suitable for low-volume or specialised operations.

Benefits of palletising products

Implementing palletising systems delivers numerous benefits across industries:

Maximum Efficiency

Automating palletising increases speed and reduces cycle times.

Reduced Manual Labour

Limits heavy lifting and repetitive strain injuries for workers.

Improved Stability

Ensures secure pallet patterns for safer transportation and storage.

Optimised Floor Space

Enhances warehouse layout and storage capacity.

Consistency & Precision

Robotic palletisers eliminate human error, ensuring every load is stacked optimally.

Tips for palletising goods

To ensure optimal performance and efficiency in palletising operations, consider the following:

Use appropriate packaging materials to maintain load integrity.
Implement arm tooling to handle individual items with precision.
Design optimal stacking patterns for improved stability and space utilisation.
Ensure pallet loads are distributed evenly to prevent toppling or shifting during transport.
Integrate robotic solutions to enhance accuracy and reduce operational costs.
