Automated goods flow and pallet handling

The increasing trend towards automation in the sense of Industry 4.0 MSK meets this challenge with fully automated logistics systems for all aspects of pallet packaging. MSK complete systems enable Fully automated pallet logistics without forklift traffic between incoming goods, high-bay warehouse, production, packaging area and outgoing goods.

Display

With the MSK EMSY 6.0 control and visualisation software, the required processes can be customised by MSK programmers and visualised in a way that is easy for the operator to understand. The database-based software has communication interfaces to the customer's ERP system. It manages and links all information from peripheral devices such as scanners, weighing systems or labellers, etc. and forwards it to the customer system.

Packaging systems for automated pallet handling

For automated pallet handling using conveyor systems, AGVs and forklift trucks, as well as in high-bay warehouses, the company offers special Film hood packaging where the pallet skids remain free of film. MSK Tensiontech stretch bonnets are equipped with the so-called MSK collar stretching process, in which the film is deposited on the top board of the pallet.

At the Shrink-wrapping a patented film forming device is used, which forms the film accordingly between the pallet skids during the shrinking process.

Fully automatic defoiling of pallets

The MSK Defotech defoiling system unpacks film-wrapped pallets fully automatically in the incoming goods area. It offers an ideal solution for increasing production speeds and reducing labour costs in multi-shift operations.

In terms of occupational safety, particularly with high pallet loads, the defoliator minimises manual intervention by personnel. Thanks to the Fully automatic defoliation There is no risk of slipping or falling products for personnel. The machine fits seamlessly into the existing production flow and can also be interlinked smoothly with upstream and downstream machines.

After unpacking, the system automatically prepares the film for the next step via a special film transport system. Recycling before. If the packaging films are collected by type, they can be fully recycled - an advantage that contributes to the sustainability of the production line.

Focus on sustainability

MSK supports customers in development and test series to save packaging material while maintaining the transport stability of pallet loads required by EUMOS guidelines.

In the specially set up Customer technology centre The company uses various packaging processes and transport simulations to develop sustainable and efficient solutions with a high level of stability. Thanks to continuous innovation, the company's packaging systems enable constant savings in energy and film.
