Stationary pallet changer

The pallet changer

Sets the standard for pallet changing.

Changes the pallet under the load without anyone lifting. The product stands in exactly the same place on the new pallet as before — and never ends up upside down.

How it runs

One cycle, four steps — and no hands on the load

Manual work is limited to taking out the old pallet and putting in a new one. The machine does the rest at a single press.

The pallet and load are driven in with a pallet jack or forklift.

120°

The load is tilted

The machine tilts the product and pallet back 120°.

120°

The machine in operation

No animation — this is the machine as it runs day to day.

  • The operator never touches the load

    Manual work is limited to taking out the old pallet and putting in a new one.

  • Fewer workplace injuries

    When manual pallet lifting comes out of the workflow, the risk drops noticeably.

  • One press per cycle

    The operator starts the machine on the control panel and can move on to other work in the meantime.

Models

Two standard models

The difference is the load height. If neither of them fits your layout, we rebuild — we do that often.

2.000
mm load height

VT 2000-15

The standard model. It covers most layouts with EUR pallets (Euro pallets) and half pallets at normal stack height.

Control system

From manual to fully automatic

The pallet changer can be supplied with four levels of control. You can start out manually and add to it later — the base machine is the same.

Spec sheetScan or click
Manual step control

The operator controls each step with buttons on the control panel.

Automatic cycle

One press of start, and the machine runs the whole sequence on its own.

Automatic pallet positioning

The machine also puts the new pallet in place on its own.

In-line with pallet dispenser

Built into the production line. Pallet handling runs entirely on its own.

The in-line solution is built largely around your layout. This is where we build the most custom solutions.

Options

Optional equipment for the pallet changer

The machine is built around where it will stand and what it will run. These are the options customers most often add.

Automatic cycle

The operator presses start and the machine runs through the whole sequence by itself. That frees up time to handle pallets or other tasks while it runs.

Automatic operation requires guarding, so that no one can get under the machine while it runs — typically safety fencing or light curtains.

Galvanizing

Often chosen for medical and food applications, where the product can come into contact with the machine. Also an advantage if the pallet changer has to stand in a damp environment.

Compressor

Recommended if you have no compressed air already. We fit a small, low-noise compressor on the machine.

External start or pull cord

Lets the operator start the machine with a pull cord or an external button — for example while seated in the forklift.

Safety and warning lights

Uses color to show whether the machine is running, has stopped, or needs service.

Spare parts package

The most essential parts held in stock at your site, so a stoppage does not turn into waiting for a delivery.

On top of that comes the service agreement — planned visits, a fixed price and the same technician every time. See what it covers →
