Description:

The Base Pad Insterter (BPI) is used in corrugated or solid board factories where for whatever reason pads need to be introduced under a load to be automatically strapped with or without a pallet. These pads give protection to the load from the straps applied to the load to hold it secure with or without a pallet. The unit can be used when the load is strapped before being placed on a pallet.

Features and Benefits: 

• The pads are scored to suit the customer and placed under the load in position along the length of the load and protruding by about 4in. This 4in folds up in the Palletizer on the score and acts as protection to the load edges where the straps are applied.
• The equipment is in two opposite parts, or right and left, which almost cover the full width of the entry conveyor to the Palletizer
• The system has a PLC program and sensors which measure the width of the load as it approaches the pad inserters - determining how the pads are positioned by the beam pad plates.
• A further sensor measures the length of the load to determine when to start applying the pads and how many pads to apply.
