The Q-Shape Inline is a fully automated pallet changer system that efficiently handles various types of products.
This was one of the first automated systems we provided to Nestlé.
They requested a super-compact solution capable of handling various products, from raw materials (big bags or sacks) to finished goods, while minimizing space. That’s why we designed and patented this innovative system!
It can seamlessly integrate into existing production lines and high-bay warehouses and is always customized to meet specific application needs. The system is perfect for customers who need to handle a wide range of products with different shapes and configurations.
Toppy Patented System;
Handles 40 pallets/hour;
Changes the pallet by tilting the load at 95°, 120° or 180°;
The pallet exchange process is entirely automated. This automation ensures maximum efficiency and consistency, significantly reducing the need for manual operator intervention and enhancing workplace safety.
A one-of-a-kind in terms of compactness, this machine was originally designed for a customer who needed to manage a wide variety of products in a limited space.
Not all products can be handled the same way. That’s why we initially designed Q-Shape to manage products by tilting them at different angles, depending on their shape and configuration.
We customize our systems to meet specific project needs. This includes factors such as conveyor height, existing machinery, the number of pallets to be changed per hour, the implementation area (inbound or outbound), product type, pallet specifications, and other relevant details.
It safely handles both fragile and bulky loads, such as pharmaceutical vials, cans, drums, bottles, boxes, and more. Known for its versatility, it’s one of the most adaptable solutions in our range.
One of our greatest strengths: 100% Made in Italy, crafted in Bologna at our headquarters with top-quality Italian components. These ensure our machines are built to last, making us global industry leaders!
For automatic pallet changers, no operators are required, as the machine performs the entire operation autonomously. This ensures a more efficient and streamlined process, minimizing the need for manual intervention and boosting overall productivity.
The pallet changing process is fully automated. The load is placed into the “Q-Shape,” which secures the product on five sides to ensure stability during the tilting process.
Depending on the type and configuration of the product, it can be tilted at an angle of 95°, 120°, or 180°. Once the product is tilted, the bottom platform holding the pallet separates and returns to its starting position, thereby detaching the pallet from the load. The old pallet is transported to a pallet magazine, while a new pallet is pushed onto the bottom platform from another pallet magazine.
In this step, the bottom platform tilts again so it rests against the base of the tilted product. The pallet changing process is completed when the entire load is tilted back to its original position, now resting on the new pallet.
The system is perfect for customers who need to handle a wide range of products with different shapes and configurations in a very compact space.
However, if you’re not sure which machine is right for you, don’t worry.
Our product range includes a variety of models, and to identify the best solution for your needs, we begin by analyzing your products, the pallets you use, and most importantly, how many pallet changes you make per hour. With this information, we can quickly recommend the most efficient solution for your specific requirements.
It’s one of our strengths. Our after-sales team is available 24/7.
For both mobile and fixed machines, we always offer an emergency spare parts kit. If additional parts are needed, we have a fully stocked inventory in Davie, Miami, and can ship what’s necessary within a few business days. In the case of a machine needing a repair, we have a team of talented technicians ready to be deployed. For automated solutions, we always schedule routine maintenance after the purchase to ensure everything is running smoothly.
The return is practically immediate from an ergonomic perspective. Just imagine – no more physical strain on operators, no injuries, and the pallet changing process is significantly sped up with automation.
