In the "Vorarlberger Ländle", the Rauch Fruchtsäfte company is renewing the palletizing of the PET line at its Nüziders site. The scope of the project includes a column palletizer with a built in shutter head in lightweight construction with carbon parts. The head also handles layer pads and is installed on the lifting column to save space. The grouping station with row pusher and two pack infeed belts merges the packs into one layer according to a scheme and conveys them into the modern shutter head. Fast working times and a lifting unit in the transfer pusher guarantee uninterrupted preparation of the packs in the grouping station. The connection to the system is made with a stainless steel pack conveyor and is guided upwards in a space saving manner by a spiral conveyor. The stainless steel pallet conveyor with included pallet magazine is compatible for Euro and industrial pallets. At the end of the Profipack scope of supply, the pallet conveyor connects to the existing system, which leads to the high bay warehouse.

The new line enables Rauch to optimally process its very high quality products at a bottle hour capacity of 47,000 bottles. The energy savings as well as very good accessibility of the compact line for operators and technology were decisive factors for Rauch to bring this production area back up to the state of the art. The professional installation and the great commitment of the Profipack employees also convinced Rauch.
