A push-type changer moves the pallet at floor level, so the load stays flat and steady while it travels into the set position.<\/p>\n<p>The machine does the pushing in one controlled stroke. Pallet travel and guard layout are confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-the-machine-does\">What the machine does<\/h2>\n<p>The machine is a push-type pallet changer built for double pallet changing operations. A loaded pallet is placed on the platform, and the push plate slides it into a set position inside the machine for the next step of the cycle.<\/p>\n<p>The sequence is run under operator control, and the load is checked before the next move. Load height and cycle travel are confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"machine-layout-and-parts\">Machine layout and parts<\/h2>\n<p>The machine has a steel frame finished in blue, with a fixed guard plate at the front and a load platform in the middle. The push plate travels along the machine track and does the pushing.<\/p>\n<p>Yellow guard rails run around the machine, and the push plate moves until the pallet is seated at the set position. The frame and guards keep the load contained during the push.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"cycle-and-control\">Cycle and control<\/h2>\n<p>At the start of the cycle, a loaded pallet is placed on the platform. The push plate advances along the track and slides the pallet into the machine until the load seats in the set position.<\/p>\n<p>The push plate then stops, and the operator checks that the cartons sit correctly before the next move. The sequence runs under operator control from the panel, and cycle travel is confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-the-footage-shows\">What the footage shows<\/h2>\n<p>Our footage shows the machine standing in a workshop during a test run. A wooden pallet carrying stacked cartons rests on the platform, and the push plate then moves and slides the pallet into the machine under the fixed front guard.<\/p>\n<p>A worker in dark overalls walks up to the load and adjusts the cartons after the push. Yellow guard rails ring the machine, and the load stays level through the push. This is a demonstration under workshop testing, so your pallet size, load height and travel distance are confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"typical-configuration\">Typical configuration<\/h2>\n<p>The figures below list functional design boundaries rather than numeric values, and are confirmed per project.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"text-align: left\">Parameter<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align: left\">Typical range, confirmed per project<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Load<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">wooden pallet with stacked goods on the platform<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Process<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">push plate slides the pallet into the set position<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Transfer<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">loaded pallet in, repositioned pallet presented at the next step<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Push plate<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">travels on the machine track until the pallet is seated<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Guard<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">fixed front guard plate on the machine frame<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Control<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">push buttons on the control panel, layout confirmed per project<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Mount<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">floor mounted, in line with the pallet flow<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Electrical supply<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">380 V three phase 50 Hz, or 220 V single phase for light machines, selected per project<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2 id=\"selection-checklist\">Selection checklist<\/h2>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"text-align: left\">Question<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align: left\">Confirm per project<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Pallet range<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">footprint, load height and total load weight<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Goods<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">carton or bag stacks, stability of the load on the pallet<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Cycle<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">push speed, travel distance and dwell at the set position<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Control<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">panel layout and guarding around the machine<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Site<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">floor space and access at both ends<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">Electrical supply<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left\">voltage, phase and frequency on site<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2 id=\"operation-and-safety\">Operation and safety<\/h2>\n<p>Place the loaded pallet on the platform, start the push, and supervise the stroke until the pallet is seated.
