This system was designed to take bags of product which were being stored in
pallet boxes and feed them automatically to an operator who would place
the bags into shipping boxes.
The pallet boxes weigh 600kg and are placed into a tipping machine
which was designed and manufactured by Montip. The tipping machine
consists of a steel frame mounted on two bearings and rotated by means
of a motor and gearbox. This frame is mounted above a PVC belt conveyor.
When the frame is rotated the contents of the pallet box empty onto the
conveyor. The conveyor transports the bags to a pick plate where the
operator picks the bag and places it into a box.

The entire system consists of 12 tipping machines which are located
behind a roller conveyor which transports the boxes from one operator to
another. The tipping machines and conveyors are linked over a DeviceNet
network and controlled by an Allen-Bradley PLC. The conveyors
incorporate sensors and independent control of different sections,
keeping each box separate and allowing for individual weight measurement
at an automatic weighing station.
