How our punnet inserter work
The line is able to automatically singulate a stack of empty crates. Then the stacks of punnets are separated and placed in the empty crates. After that, the crates filled with empty punnets are piled up again. The line consists of a conveyor belt, a destacker, a separation unit and a stacker.
The destacker lifts a stack of empty crates and then places them one by one on the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt moves the crates to the separation unit, which ensures that the empty crates are filled with punnets. There, the filled crates are stacked again. As soon as the desired stack height is reached, the conveyor belt discharges the stack. An operator moves the stack to a certain location in the warehouse. Only one operator is needed for this task, where operators were previously required to transport stacks of empty crates, place stacks of punnets and remove stacks of punnets from the line.
Use of our punnet inserter
The punnet insert is frequently used, especially in the agri-food sector. This machine has been developed for the mushroom industry, but can be used as well for soft fruit such as strawberries or raspberries.
