Cheese Block Packaging and Palletizing

Massman has filled needs in the Cheese Block Production Industry with machines which efficiently case pack and palletize cased 40# cheese blocks.

Massman's Cheese Block Case Packer compresses the case top to assure squareness and will add a collar around the block before casing. The Palletizer infeed orients the cased cheese blocks into multiple tier configurations, will alternate tier configurations and will automatically dispense pallets and place slip sheets. Massman dependability and productivity are bound to save you money over the long term in either -or both!- of these applications.

Soffit/Siding Case Packer/Palletizer

Massman offers an efficient, productive, system approach to packaging for the Siding and Soffit Panel Production Industry. Built to the customer's specifications, modular units of machinery work together to feed, pack and palletize. An Infeed unit receives panels directly from the customer's production line, counting the panels. An operator positions and stacks the panels per the required pack pattern (automatic stacking/collating available). The Case Packer forms a case, receives (loads) the stack from the infeed, and closes, glues and seals the case. The Case Packer discharge then moves the sealed case to the Palletizer. The Palletizer gantry head picks it and places it on the pallet. All machine system elements are tied together by PLC control and electronic sensors. Any operator-accessible areas of the machine are guarded with light curtains. Safety being a top priority along with efficiency, this machine system will be a sizeable asset where safety and productivity are concerned in your application.
