• These systems typically include conveyors that transport cartons from filling or packing machines to accumulation conveyors where cartons are sealed or shrink wrapped.
• The cartons proceed to an accumulation and merge area where the various sources of cartons are sent to a high speed palletizer in pallet load quantities.
• The palletizer utilizes a barcode scanner which monitors the arrival of cartons into the machine and will detect any issues.  
• The palletizer creates a full pallet load and will discharge it to the full pallet conveyors.   The barcode information is utilized to create and print a pallet label on the pallet load as it discharges from the palletizer.  
• This label will be scanned by a fork truck operator as he retrieves the load from the pallet conveyors for storage.  
• A J R Controls, PC application can provide the customers WMS system with information related to the pallet load product identity and quantity.
• These control systems typically have multiple system monitor screens (HMI) for system monitoring and trouble shooting.
