Pallet Transportation System

This end customer is a frozen food processing company.

We designed an all-in-one system to deliver consistent performance in supply. Motus provided the warehouse cranes, the material feed cranes and the modular belt conveyors.

Both the infeed and the outfeed use modular belt conveyors that are integrated at floor level and on which a 2.5 tonne electric pallet truck moves. The speed of these modular belt conveyors amounts to 12 m/min and maximum load capacity is 1,250 kg. All stacking/destacking operations are done by a stacker crane with a 18 seconds cycle time. Supply to the production line (at a height of 4 m) or to the waiting position is done by a pallet crane. Likewise, storage in the automated warehouse is done using a pallet crane fitted with telescopic forks to depositi the products 2 m deeper. Both pallet cranes have a travel speed of 150 m/min, a lifting speed of 50 m/min and a 1,250kg move capacity.
