Frequently asked questions

No, neither this or any other palletizer can be used in freezer conditions. They use pneumatics, which are not apt to be used in cold environments (anything under 10 degrees Celsius), and have other parts that have not been tested for freezer conditions. A deep-freeze palletizer is in development.

The thickness of the powder coating must be at least between 60µm and 90µm per layer. With a primer and a topcoat, the thickness is at least 120-180µm.

When having an EPD coating, an extra 18-25µm is added.

As we have many different situations it’s hard to compare directly but in general energy consumption is lower as in our machines we only use energy to move the product and there is no large steel parts that needs to get into motion.

No, we can only handle cartons with relatively flat bottom / top within current design.

EPD coating is a pretreatment before powder coating, which makes the coating more resistant to e.g. moisture environments.

Yes, the machine can be supplied with EPD (KTL) coating.

The high level infeed palletizers (HRx) are available with MoviMot Advanced + DRN AC drives.

Please consult with a sales representative for other Movimots.

Currently a Twistrunner is not sold as a stand-alone unit. Please check availability with your sales representative.

There standard language is English but there are multiple languages available, such as Spanish. Any other language can be brought in if needed. Language can easily be switched at wish on the panel.

Yes, every Qimarox palletizer can handle ‘incomplete’ layers or pallet loads. If it receives a signal (manual or automated) that the last SKU of a batch has entered, the machine can empty itself out fully automated.

A Twistrunner is driven by one or two gear motors (depending on type of Twistrunner) operated by a frequency controller. The rollers of the Twistrunner are belt driven. For every belt driven roller conveyor we always have a spare belt installed to make sure down time is minimized as much as possible if a belt would need replacement.

The machines are not suitable for ATEX environments. It has not been designed or certified for use in explosive atmospheres as defined by ATEX standards.
