Goldco’s patent pending Fortis High-Level Bulk Depalletizers automatically remove empty containers from pallets and feed them into production lines. Fortis employs a unique method for handling dunnage, bringing the consolidated dunnage down to floor level for easy robotic separation. Our robotic dunnage handling system separates layer pads, top frames, and pallets to meet supplier needs. Fortis is designed to operate in a 24-hour/day production environment and easily handles empty steel, aluminum, and PET containers.

Fortis utilizes high-speed servo-driven sweep bars that work together to provide gentle handling and secure containment during the sweeping operation. To remove dunnage materials, the dunnage pick head removes the top frame and layer pads between layer sweeps and then stores them in the sheet tray until all containers are removed from the pallet. The stack of layer pads and the top frame are then deposited onto the empty pallet and sent to floor level. Layer pads, the top frame, and the pallet are conveyed out from the hoist to the robotic dunnage handling system. Dunnage materials are then placed into separate stacks for floor-level removal. The dunnage area can be configured in various ways based on client needs.
