Palletizing and depalletizing systems
Create an end-to-end automated warehouse palletizing flow for pallets, layers, and cases. Increase your throughput and reduce manual handling in one efficient, unified system.

Palletizing and depalletizing without manual bottlenecks
System advantages
Benefits
Unprecedented speed
Coordinated handling drives high throughput, processing up to 220 picks/h from 16 locations and 4 layers at a time.
Unique picking versatility
Handle up to 98% of grocery retail and FMCG SKUs, including unstable, irregular, fragile and heavy products, for unrivalled versatility.
Flexibility
Combine layer and full-case picking to build mixed pallets for retail stores or e-commerce replenishment.
End-to-end solution
An integrated ecosystem
Inbound processing
Incoming pallets are immediately depalletized into trays or layers for rapid buffering in storage or shuttle systems.
High-speed picking
The Layer Picker System builds store-ready pallets, and can pick layers from multiple pallets simultaneously, hitting 220 cycles per hour.
Mixed palletizing
Advanced robot palletizers combine picked layers and cases to construct stable, store-ready mixed pallets customized for each order.
Load securing
Transfer cars or AMRs move order pallets to automated stations for strapping and wrapping, ensuring load stability for transport.
Synchronized dispatch
Integrated WMS software orchestrates the entire sequence, managing flow control to ensure error-free dispatch.

Products & technologies
Layer picking
Bridge palletizing and order fulfilment. Our layer picking systems enable fast, precise handling of full layers for efficient store-friendly pallet building and high-throughput distribution.
Layer Picker Gantry
A high-speed gantry robot system designed specifically for automating layer picking operations with precision and reliability.
Layer Picker Mono Gantry
A space-saving mono-gantry system for layer picking, ideal for operations with lower throughput requirements or space constraints.
Layer Picker Robot
A robotic solution dedicated to layer picking, offering the flexibility and reach of a robot arm for building mixed-layer pallets.
“If we want to keep up with the demands of our customers, we have to be innovative, and we have to create more volume. The Layer Picker is the best way to do so and to help us achieve that goal.”
