Pail Palletizing \ End-of-Line Container Stacking

Manually stacking heavy pails causes injuries, dropped products, and unstable loads that fail in transit. Remtec builds robotic pail palletizing cells with custom conveyors, handle-oriented placement, and tier sheet insertion for stable, shippable unit loads.

Key Takeaways:

  • Palletizes pails from one gallon to 55-gallon drums
  • Handles plastic, fiber, and metal containers
  • Orients pails by handle location for labeling and controlled stacking
  • Places tier sheets between stacked layers automatically
  • FANUC Authorized and Cognex Certified system integration

How Robotic Pail Palletizing Builds More Stable Unit Loads?

Manual labor fatigue produces uneven stacks, pail breakage, and loads that shift or topple during shipping. Remtec configures gripper tooling and pallet patterns to your container type, building consistent loads that survive transit.

Supporting Details:

  • Vacuum, fork-style, and clamp-style gripper tooling configured to container
  • Slip, tier, and top sheet feeding and placement included
  • Automated pallet feeding, handling, and load wrapping available

    • Systems handle pails of one gallon, five gallons, or more, and drums up to 55 gallons in size.

    • Pails and drums made from plastic, fiber, or metal are all supported, with lids applied via secondary automation if needed.

    • The robot or orientation station locates each pail by handle position, then orientates it so side or top labels face consistently for scanning.

    • Yes, Remtec builds pail depalletizing into cells alongside palletizing upon request, with automated pallet and dunnage handling.
