The stack and wrap palletizing/stretch wrapping cell combines two or more lines into a centralized, automated palletizing stretch wrapping station. The integrated equipment builds the unit load on the stretch wrapper for more efficient handling of lightweight, unstable loads in less floor space. Incorporated are a robotic arm, two stretch wrappers, automatic pallet dispenser, and conveyor system to deliver empty pallets to each stretch wrapper. Once a predetermined number of cases are loaded onto the first pallet, the first wrapper applies film to stabilize the load layers, while the robotic arm builds a load on the second stretch wrapper. The alternating process repeats until the load is complete and product is discharged to a conveyor transfer system. The system can handle two different products simultaneously for high throughput.
