Product Description
This system is suitable for palletizing and depalletizing empty cans. It is mainly composed of empty cans palletizer, depalletizer, and empty cans conveyer system. The lifting system uses hydraulic drive. The parallel shift of the cans is clamping and shifting way by synchronous belt drive.
The Automatic Can Unstacker is a high-efficiency, robotic unloading system designed for modern food canning production lines. It automates the unloading of empty cans from stacked pallets, ensuring smooth, fast, and hygienic transfer to the filling or washing stations. Engineered for precision and reliability, this machine significantly reduces manual labor, minimizes product damage, and enhances production efficiency in food, beverage, and packaging industries.
Key Features & Benefits
High-Speed Unloading
Capable of handling 200-1,500 cans per minute (depending on model), ensuring seamless integration with high-volume production lines.
Adjustable speed settings to match downstream equipment requirements.
Wide Compatibility
Supports various can types (round, rectangular, slim, etc.) and sizes (from 50 ml to 5+ liters).
Compatible with different stacking patterns (layer pads, slip sheets, or interlocked stacks).
Gentle& Damage-Free Handling
Utilizes vacuum suction grippers, servo-driven arms, or magnetic lifters (for metal cans) to ensure secure, scratch-free unloading.
Anti-jam and misalignment detection systems prevent deformations.
Smart Automation & Controls
PLC + HMI Touchscreen for easy operation, recipe storage, and real-time monitoring.
Sensors and vision systems verify can orientation, ensuring correct feeding into the line.
Optional IoT connectivity for remote diagnostics and predictive maintenance.
